Yusuke Takagi, founder of OLD JOE, built his name on a sharp respect for the “good old days” and the discipline to do them justice. After years as a freelance pattern maker for renowned brands, he launched OLD JOE in 2007, bringing with him a deep knowledge of vintage design. Each garment is handcrafted in Japan, where heritage techniques meet a restrained modern edge and detailing is treated as a quiet obsession. Rich dyeing methods and durable fabrics ensure these pieces age gracefully, long after trends have lost interest.
