□ "O/EIGHTH"
A brand launching next spring from a long-established hat company dedicated to hats for 120 years since 1895.
"The function of fitting well."
American architect Louis Sullivan said,
"form follows function."
What we aim for is "the function of fitting well."
Not design by decoration, but by deriving shapes from personality,
we envision bringing new awareness and discoveries.
The brand name "O8 O/EIGHTH" is derived from the Go term "Bōme Hachime," which means a third party can judge the pros and cons of a matter better than those involved,
and we build products that fit various users using the know-how cultivated over more than a hundred years of history.
O/EIGHTH is a hat laboratory based on over 100 years of hat-making know-how,
researching and considering what hats fit well.
By classifying face shapes and deriving the shapes and forms of parts from those features,
we build products that fit various personalities.
□ PRODUCT DETAIL
A face type with prominent temples that narrows toward the chin.
Choosing a hat to fit the temples can make the head look large, so the side volume is suppressed and the brim is designed short and soft.
A 5-panel cap designed with side volume of the crown and a short, soft brim to match the face type. The brim has 8 rows of 3mm stitching.
Uses grunge wash cotton dyed and washed over a long time with a small dyeing machine while kneading. It produces a unique color development and texture.
