Established in 2020, Maru Sankaku Peke is a relatively young Japanese label under the Studio D'Artisan International umbrella, bringing a more experimental approach to classic workwear through traditional Japanese fabrics, distinctive patchwork and carefully considered distressing techniques.

Originally developed with overseas markets in mind, the brand takes familiar vintage silhouettes and gives them an entirely different character, combining traditional craftsmanship with a distinctly unconventional design philosophy. Its "Tsugihagi" Type 2 Selvedge Jacket is a particularly fine example of this approach.The jacket begins with a classic Type 2 denim silhouette, constructed from 13oz. Japanese selvedge denim. What sets it apart, however, is the remarkable patchwork created using genuine antique Japanese indigo-dyed Kimono fabrics. These increasingly rare textiles are carefully selected, die-cut, and arranged by skilled artisans, with particular attention paid to how their individual patterns, shades and textures complement one another.

Once the patchwork detailing has been assembled, the fabric undergoes an additional distressing process, introducing further wear and texture to create the character of a garment that has already seen decades of use. The interplay between the faded denim and the varying shades of antique indigo lends the jacket a remarkable depth, with each individual patch carrying a small piece of Japanese textile history.
