Long-established ventures

These words are the driving force behind KADOYA.
Because we are a long-established company, we want to value our venture spirit.

I personally think it's better to have individual power than a company that is in a standard way.
We would like to be a company that can maximize each individual's individuality rather than a parallel organization. It's a company that can do anything, so please try it to your heart's content.

However, I hope they aim to do it responsibly. Be sure to never treat yourself, always humble and challenger.

We look forward to seeing you who can walk together.

We deal with leather.
Because it is a material that is built on top of life, we continue to carefully create each piece so that it can be worn for a long time.

KADOYALeather clothing store

The 1930s. At that time, there was no leather for leather jackets, but I used leather that customers brought in and purchased for bags. Ready-made leather jackets were also available at the time, but the construction was so shaky that it would tear quickly, and the idea that real-life riders had a strong idea that "leather jackets are limited to custom-made items."
