Concept of “FIT WORKS”

Owner says,
“I just want people to use favorite goods for long time, just it.”

Use the favorite for long time.
To do that, “The clothes will have more own taste, and user will attach to it”.
The owner want to spread this spirit against clothes.

He really love the clothes.

The future of “FIT WORKS”

“In the future, while based on the ’repairing’ , I want to make a interesting clothes which is worn a long time.

“I don’t want to make the clothes which is commercially available”
“It is nonsense for me if I make the clothes same as common clothes”

As owner says like this, the design of clothes in the store are unique.
For example the Trousers, the rise is very deep.
By making so, the rise hard to become damaged.

I think such a attention, love, particular about clothes drive him to work hard.

If you “Want to repair the clothes”, “Need hamming the trouser” “want my jeans repaired”,
“FIT WORKS” in Kyoto is the best.

How about going there and ask repairing your favorite?
