Due to the modern-day shift away from Kimonos, there are many beautiful unused (dead stock) Kimono fabrics stored in Japan. SAI Japan Vintage was started in New York in 2020 by Founder Aya, inspired by traditional Japanese Kimono culture. 

SAI Japan Vintage respects original Kimono traditions by upcycling deadstock fabrics and creating new value and life, all the while conveying the beauty of Kimonos and Japanese Textiles to the world.
