◆ About Ligaretta

Ligare Daimaruyu launched the apparel brand "Ligaretta," which upcycles (*2) banner flags (*1) and other materials displayed on Marunouchi Naka-dori. It proposes a brand from the Daimaruyu (Otemachi, Marunouchi, Yurakucho) area that fits the modern era with a concept of reducing waste and circulating materials. It considers items destined for disposal as "materials permeated with the story of the town," and its concept is not just to reduce waste but also to connect the town's stories. Gathering unutilized materials existing in the city, connecting the stories permeated in them, and circulating them. Wearing fashion permeated with the story of the town. "Ligaretta" proposes such a lifestyle.

*1: Our association handles the procedures for displaying area management advertisements (flags, etc.) in the Daimaruyu area. *2: Products that give new added value, such as design, to items that were originally destined to be discarded, transforming them into different products.
