Before going out in the morning, or on the way home from work.
For just nine days, we have prepared a special encounter for you to drop in on as you pass through Kyoto Station on your daily routine.
[Concept: Express yourself with African colors]
In the midst of your busy daily life, have you ever had a moment where you suddenly wondered, "What is my true self?"
A monochrome closet, similar bags, similar days...
Why not add the vibrant colors nurtured by the African land and the thoughts of its creators to your everyday life?
Kibera slum in Nairobi, Makoko in Lagos.
Even in the midst of poverty, there are people who do not give up hope and try to take a step towards tomorrow.
Each product you purchase will become their income, help pass on their skills, and give them hope for the future.
"Shopping" becomes "support." That is what we consider to be ethical living.
