CANTON OVERALLS
CANTON was born in 1963 as the first domestic jeans brand in Japan and operated until 1968. In 2008, Toyoshima & Co., Ltd. revived the canton as "CANTON OVERALLS".
The high reputation of "Japan Denim" and "Japan Jeans" is now firmly established in the global fashion industry. Denim factories in Japan combine the world's most advanced technology with traditional technology, and Japan are engaged in their own creative manufacturing. Jeans, which originated in the American West in the late 19th century, landed in Japan in the 1950s following the turmoil of the postwar period. Shortly thereafter, "CANTON" was born. It is the first authentic domestic denim brand in Japan that debuted in 1963 and disappeared in 68 after taking the world by storm. It is a legendary brand that can never be told without this brand to unravel the history of the Japan jeans world.
