Nigo’s Human Made has launched a United States subsidiary to continue its global expansion.

On Monday (March 16), it was revealed in a press release that the Japanese clothing and lifestyle brand has established a U.S. division, which will be fully owned by Human Made. “The Company has been pursuing global business expansion as a key component of its growth strategy and considers the United States of America as one of the most important countries with large market size,” the brand’s explanation reads.

Established in 2010, Human Made was created three years before Nigo left streetwear brand Bape. Multiple Human Made retail stores are operating in Asia, while brand items can also be purchased online.
