Midas - Early 00s Satin Bondage Riders Fur Jacket

Midas, a Japanese fashion brand established in the early 2000s by Hiroshi Tanaka in Osaka, was born from a deep appreciation for craftsmanship and a desire to reimagine traditional Japanese techniques in modern apparel. Tanaka, who grew up surrounded by Osaka's vibrant textile industry, was heavily influenced by its rich history of dyeing and weaving. He sought to create a label that celebrated this heritage while infusing it with contemporary relevance.Focusing initially on jackets, Tanaka envisioned them as both functional garments and statements of artistry. He believed a jacket could embody the balance between protection and personal expression, much like armor in ancient times. Inspired by this concept, Midas became renowned for its meticulous construction and innovative use of materials. His vision was not only to create clothing but to craft enduring pieces that tell a story through their design and construction. This rider's jacket composed of satin, resembles the very spirit Midas carries. Showcasing custom Victorian hardware integrated into the bondage straps (featured around the collar and waist), a detachable fur collar, four zippered pockets, wrist zippers for added style and comfort, a double-zipper mechanism for enhanced versatility, and ribbed knit panels extending from the hems for a seamless finish. Through his dedication to jackets, Tanaka aimed to redefine them as more than outerwear. For him, they became canvases of tradition and innovation, bridging the past and the future in a way that appealed to a wide array of wearers seeking both functionality and thoughtful design.
