Harob offers two lines: a standard collection dyed in original colors, and one-of-a-kind pieces where artists carefully hand-dye each garment using natural dyes.

The mud-dyed works are created by textile dyer Kotosa Natsuyagi, who draws inspiration from the scenery she gazes upon each day on the beautiful and mystical island of Amami Oshima. "Bin 檳" captures the moment the sunset turns the sky to shades of pink and grey, while "Sumi 墨" depicts light piercing through the lustrous grey sea after rain. Each piece is painted and dyed with innovative ideas, combining mud with a variety of plants that grow wild across the island.

The work titled "Doro 泥" is a single garment completed through one hundred dyeing processes. In the weight of the mud that remains within the fabric's fibers, you can feel the warmth of the rich earth.

Everyone surely has their own moments of quiet comfort. Gazing at the evening sea day after day — feeling the beauty of the sky, the sound of the waves — we wanted to capture that luxurious sense of ease in clothing. That wish is where Harob was born.

Generously crafted from smooth, premium 100% hemp fabric. A single design, refined to its purest simplicity. Rooted in the straight lines of the Japanese traditional haori, with contemporary Western tailoring woven in, this borderless design fits any occasion and brings out the individuality of the wearer. Beautifully handmade by skilled artisans, the fabric — woven with fine threads in a relaxed weave — is wonderfully soft and feather-light to wear.

May each robe bring a touch of everyday luxury to your life. We are committed to making clothing with heart.

Oshima Tsumugi is a traditional Japanese woven textile with a history spanning over 1,300 years. Its signature dyeing technique, mud dyeing, is a traditional art that can only be achieved on Amami Oshima, Japan — nowhere else in the world. The iron-rich soil of Amami reacts chemically with the tannins found in the sharinbai tree, which grows wild on the island, producing the distinctive dark brown-black hue that defines mud dyeing. After an initial dyeing in sharinbai extract, the fabric is taken to a mud field where mud is worked deep into the fibers, then carried to a river to be rinsed and washed. This process is repeated many times over, amid the island's rich and abundant nature.
