Artisan Toyoaki Kuwayama started Kyoto Denim in 2007 order to bring the craft of yuzen dyeing from the world of kimono painting to a new medium that would resonate in the 21* century. Kyoto Denim’s goal is to preserve this art, and bring it to audiences around the globe.
The dyeing and tailoring of our bags is all done in Kyoto. They showcase the skills of our craftsmen, and highlight the unique designs of Kyoto. Kyoto Denim also offers custom dyeing services, where you can select a pattern to be dyed on your own jeans.

To bring Tegaki yuzen into the future, we will continue to blend historic Japanese artistic techniques with denim fabrics from all over the world in a way that honours both the history of the art form, and the materials that give it life.p
The Kimono Traditional Crafts are the backbone of Kyoto’s exceptional artistic culture. Made by artisans, these rustic objects possess excellent functionality combined with a uniquely Japanese sense of beauty that was refined over the course of 300 years during the Edo Period. Tegaki yuzen is a freehand style of textile dyeing that was traditionally used to apply pictorial or decorative patterns to kimono and obi fabric.
