Who makes Lawford Clothing and what is its design philosophy?

Lawford Clothing was founded in 2020 by Japanese designer Kazu Takeshige. The brand focuses on timeless silhouettes and rugged construction, inspired by British and American workwear but built with Japanese precision under the motto “Built to Last.”

Where is Lawford Clothing made?

All Lawford garments are made in Japan, using high-quality fabrics and traditional manufacturing techniques to ensure superior durability and style.

Is Lawford Clothing similar to other Japanese brands like Kapital or Visvim?

Lawford shares a passion for craftsmanship and heritage design with brands like Kapital and Visvim, but it offers a more grounded, utility-driven approach—prioritizing everyday wearability and accessible pricing over avant-garde or luxury positioning.

Why is Japanese workwear so popular?

Japanese workwear is admired for its attention to detail, quality materials, and reverence for vintage Americana and military styles. Brands like Lawford reflect this ethos, offering garments that are both functional and culturally rich.

What makes Lawford’s denim and workwear special?

Lawford’s denim is crafted using traditional Japanese weaving methods that create a rich, durable fabric. The brand’s workwear features reinforced stitching, vintage cuts, and thoughtful details that improve with age and wear.

Where can I buy Lawford Clothing online and internationally?

Lawford is available online at lawford.jp and through international retailers like URAHARA STORE in Melbourne, Australia.

What We Think

In 1920s New York, Brooklyn’s waterfront was filled with dockworkers, machinists, and craftsmen, all dressed in the sturdy workwear of the era. Industrial design was taking shape which meant form followed function, and excess was stripped away in favour of pure utility. Inspired by that landscape, this denim jacket pays homage to the rugged, no-nonsense aesthetic of the time.

The colour and shape of this piece works well with denim. The Lawford buckle backs or TCB S40s are a perfect match.
