takeshy kurosawa

Takeshy Kurosawa is an Italian menswear brand celebrated for its expert production of denim that marries Italian craftsmanship with high-quality Japanese textiles. The brand's history began post-World War II with founder Giuseppe Langella, a skilled tailor who initially created jackets from silk parachutes left behind by American soldiers. By the 1970s, he was running his own stores, laying the groundwork for what would become the Takeshy Kurosawa fashion house, a multi-generational family enterprise. Despite its Japanese name—a nod to the country where it sources its extraordinary selvedge fabrics from renowned mills like Kurabo and Amhot—the brand's identity is deeply rooted in Italian manufacturing, with all creation, production, and finishing taking place exclusively in Italy.
