How the quirky neighbourhood of Koenji inspires designer Daisuke Obana
We worked with Hypebeast and New Balance to tell the story of how the rustic and vintage loving artist enclave of Koeji, Tokyo has inspired the creative work of Daisuke Obana, founder and designer iconic Japanese fashion imprint, N.
