Founded in 2011 by Hideaki Shikama, a former select shop director and avid collector of vintage archives, Children of the Discordance is a Tokyo-based brand that channels personal history into tangible garments. Shikama’s designs are a direct reflection of his lifelong immersion in the youth subcultures of the ‘90s, particularly skateboarding and hip-hop. The brand is celebrated for its intricate patchwork and reconstruction techniques, deconstructing and reassembling vintage materials like bandanas, military fabrics, and denim into entirely new forms. This upcycling approach, driven by a desire for originality rather than a sustainability mandate, results in one-of-a-kind or limited-run pieces that carry the weight of history.
