meanswhile

Founded in 2014 by designer Naohiro Fujisaki, the Japanese menswear label meanswhile specializes in sophisticated, functional outerwear and accessories. The brand merges high-end Japanese design philosophy with practical craftsmanship to create avant-garde pieces, predominantly in a monochromatic color scheme. Its collections feature utilitarian items—such as padded khakis, technical jackets, and functional bags—elevated through the use of premium technical fabrics and minimalist detailing, resulting in a uniquely refined and stylish take on workwear.
