Sassafras is a niche Japanese menswear label founded by Takashi Takagi in the early 2000s, rooted in a unique “garden‑wear” concept that blends influences from workwear, military gear and outdoor utility. The brand is celebrated for its thoughtful yet functional design — combining practical details, relaxed silhouettes and robust fabrics to create pieces that prioritise comfort and everyday performance, inspired by both the natural world and traditional utilitarian garments.
