He sells his own brands, including Rocky Mountain Featherbed and BIG YANK, both in Japan and overseas. He is also an apparel designer and world-renowned vintage collector. He formed a partnership with Pierre Fournier, who he met when he was young and had a great influence on him, and is responsible for the design, production, and Japanese expansion of ANATOMICA.
