Miharayasuhiro

Mihara Yasuhiro is a Japanese designer and menswear label founded in 1994. His first steps began in the realm of footwear, practicing his skill set for 6 years before pivoting to menswear in the year 2000. Yasuhiro stated the shift of focus was somewhat necessary, often finding himself questioning what would be worn with each shoe, boot or sneaker. For his first seasons, he played with tropes of deconstruction and oversizing, but everything changed in 2005, as the artisan deviated to the European circuit. With a concrete resume of praised collections and refined approach—Mihara Yasuhiro unveiled his own take on traditional menswear, and was met with applause. Meshing either genre, he created his own experimental niche in which he still practices today.
