The original logo itself was lost with the passage of time.

But its image remained in the memory of the previous generation.

“The Himalayas.”
“Two lions.”
“A star.”

Guided by these images, passed down through memory and conversation, the HIMARAYA LION logo was born anew.

This logo is not a faithful reproduction of the original design.
It is a new symbol of HIMARAYA LION — one that carries forward the memories and spirit of our beginnings, reinterpreted for the present day.

History is not made only of what remains in records.

What is passed from one person to another, and what continues through craftsmanship and technique, is also part of our history.

For nearly 90 years, we have continued to work closely with yarn, one strand at a time.
The years we have accumulated, and our sincere dedication to making things well, are embodied in this logo.

HIMARAYA LION is not a brand created simply to look back on the past.

It is a brand created to carry the skills and spirit we have inherited forward into the next generation.

APPAREL BRAND

DESIGNING FROM THE YARN.

Our ideal is yarn that is supple and lustrous,
with a gentle feel against the skin.

We work closely with each material,
drawing on the experience and knowledge we have cultivated over the years.

Every day, we continue to refine our craft,
exploring how far we can bring out the inherent qualities of the material.

YARN

It is so profound that it cannot be summed up in one word, ``thread.'' There are countless types of cotton yarn, depending on the region of production and variety. Furthermore, even if they are from the same production area or variety, there may be differences unique to natural fibers.

At Toyota Yasugyo, we sometimes use the analogy of rice to explain things in an easy-to-understand manner.
The taste of rice also varies greatly depending on the producer, region, and year.
Similarly, threads made from natural fibers change their appearance depending on the time.
Since I work with yarn every day, I sometimes notice slight differences in the yarn.

Gassd yarn

Yarn Gassing is called gassed yarn. This Yarn Gassing is made by exposing the fine fluff on the surface of the fibres to the flame of a gas burner, which burns off and removes the fluff from the surface.

Gassd yarn features

1. smoothness: the removal of surface fluff reduces the area in contact with the skin, resulting in a very smooth and light touch.

2. Gloss: A fine-grained, high-quality sheen is produced, making yarns and fabrics look more beautiful. Colour development during dyeing is also improved and the pattern comes out clearly.

3. Strength: The uniform surface of the yarn reduces friction and increases the strength of the yarn.

4, durability: the yarn and fabric are less prone to pilling and last longer. Pilling grade increases.
