Navy

Nice to meet you, I'm Masakazu Fukano, the third generation representative of KADOYA.

Although it is irregular, I would like to distribute it little by little.

It is sudden,

What color do you imagine KADOYA's image color to be?

Nowadays, many people may think of "black", which can be found in many items, from leather jackets to various items.

Going back to my childhood, the image color of KADOYA in my mind was NAVY.

At that time, the store was on the first floor of the residence and the factory was inside the residence.

The color that influenced me as a child was NAVY.

I have always loved all kinds of vehicles, and I was especially obsessed with commercial vehicles. lol


At that time, many of KADOYA's commercial vehicles were in NAVY colors, which still leaves an impression on me.

  • Early 80's Toyota Light Ace M20 series (NAVY)

Kadoya, a specialized manufacturer of leather jackets

  • Mid-80s Toyota Hiace (NAVY)

  • Late 80's early 90's Nissan Caravan E24 type (WHITE/NAVY)

Kadoya, a specialized manufacturer of leather jackets

  • First half of 1990 Mercedes-Benz 280D SILVER/NAVY

    (Explanation of each vehicle will be given another time)


As for why this color was chosen, I think it was the intention of the second generation president (current chairman), who loves NAVY more than anything and is still energetic today.

You can also receive this from the crown mark, which is also a symbol of Kadoya.

My favorite NAVY, the shop name KADOYA, and the white and red of the Japanese flag are things that remain the same even when times change.I have been influenced by these things since I was a child, and my reaction to NAVY will never change.


Thanks to you, I love the coloring of Suzuki bikes.

LEATHER HIGH SNEAKER is my personal favorite product in the Kadoya lineup.

We are working hard to add NAVY to our lineup as a new color for this product in early fall of this year.

Of course, a black leather jacket is also good, but

We recommend NAVY, which allows you to wear different styles and express your individuality.
