Neighborhood

Established in Tokyo, 1994, by young motorcycle enthusiast Shinsuke Takizawa, Neighborhood was built out of a desire for well-designed, premium quality motorcycle apparel. Dissatisfied with the ill-fitting and poorly crafted trad product available at the time, Shinsuke set out to create expert technical apparel, heavily inspired by the American motorcycle aesthetic, as well as varied aspects of US counter-culture and military, workwear and Native American design.

Alongside brands such as Wtaps, Undercover and A Bathing Ape, Neighborhood would play a huge part in what is now known as the 'Ura-Harajuku' or 'Ura-Hara' movement, and would go on to change the face of contemporary streetwear as we know it today. The brand takes pride in crafting product that is luxury in every sense of the word, utilising technical design and premium construction to create truly beautiful garments.
