TAIKAN EVERYTHING has arrived!
TEIKEN EVERYTHING landed in Japan across the sea.
TAIKAN EVERITHING" is a bag brand born in Vancouver, Canada, that has been launched in Japan this fall. The brand's products have a solid, lean design, functional beauty from the user's point of view, and a reasonable price. The combination of these three elements gives the items an overwhelming sense of versatility. The launch event held at Nomadic Life Market in Harajuku, Tokyo, under the direction of stylist Daisuke Araki, was a great success, with the store's interior tinted in the colors of "TEIKEN EVERYTHING". We will now report on the event, along with an interview with Mr. Araki.
In fact, the brand's directors and designers are representatives of the Canadian street scene. Bags combining clean design and functional beauty were displayed in the center of the store along with coach jackets, expressing the brand's identity with the Canadian street scene as its background. A DJ booth was specially set up for the occasion, where yukibeb, a member of the hot Los Angeles-based label "Soulection," performed. The store was filled with hip-hop music and the atmosphere of the street, allowing visitors to enjoy the brand's worldview firsthand.
Personal belongings of notable people are on display.

Along with bags, personal items such as cameras, books, tumblers, and T-shirts were displayed near the entrance of the store. These items belonged to Rintaro Wajima of "FRANK 151," barista Hiroshi Sawada, photographer Taro Hirano, and stylist Daisuke Araki. Looking at these items, one can feel their individual personalities oozing out. It was an exhibition that seemed to symbolize that "TEIKEN EVERYTHING," with its clean and minimalist design and lack of brand logos on the surface of the items, respects the personalities of its users.
It is natural to be curious about the personal belongings of famous people and what kind of micro-world they have in their bags. During the event, it was impressive to see how everyone was looking at the exhibition with their eyes.
