Originating from Hiroo in Tokyo, Japan, Stevenson Overall Co. was founded in 2005 by renowned vintage collectors Zip Stevenson and Atsu Tagaya, with the goal of recreating vintage styles that were popular in America at the turn of the century. The brand is a revival of an old workwear company which ceased operations in the 1930s.
SOC's garments exhibit an unparalleled attention to detail, with fabrics sourced exclusively from the finest and oldest mills in Japan. From the wool used in their accessories and jackets to the denim for their jeans and the naturally dyed canvas for their shirts and jackets, every material is meticulously crafted to meet their specifications.
Each piece is sewn on vintage sewing machines, with denim and canvas shirts and jeans featuring single-needle stitching—a rarity in today's fashion. The belt loops on their jeans are hand-stitched due to their unique shape and intricate details. The buttons on their jackets and jeans come with leather backing, and their watch caps are woven from the highest quality silk yarn, dyed with natural indigo and plant-based colours.
Stevenson Overall Co. has successfully incorporated modern production methods while remaining dedicated to traditional craftsmanship, appealing to both new customers and those who appreciate the brand's heritage. The company is particularly recognized for its use of flat-felled seams in jeans production, along with distinctive and unconventional back pocket designs and stitching techniques.
