Tsugi-Craft by TOYOTA UPCYCLE

Our story begins with premium leather offcuts from automotive production.
We bring out the individuality of each piece, connecting it to the future through new value.
This is the origin of Tsugi-Craft by TOYOTA UPCYCLE.

The word tsugi embodies our philosophy of carrying things forward, bringing them together, and shaping what comes next.

Tsugi-Craft is a unique approach to craftsmanship that combines the meticulous handwork cultivated in Japanese bag-making factories with the manufacturing expertise refined at Toyota Motor Corporation.
By honoring the character and appeal of each material, we carefully join each piece by hand, bringing out its potential and transforming it into something of lasting value.
Upcycling has opened up new possibilities for more sustainable ways of making.
We see even greater potential beyond this.
By embracing the individuality of each material and refining it through the care and skill of human hands, we create lasting value in pieces to be cherished for years to come.

Tsugi-Craft by TOYOTA UPCYCLE offers a new choice in premium upcycling.
