ABOUT

Q+FLOW is a bag and accessory brand born in Tokyo, created by a Japanese designer, using domestically produced materials and sewn by Japanese craftsmen, once again promoting the value of Made in Japan to the world.

The brand name Q+FLOW embodies the meaning of constantly asking ourselves questions and continuing to explore (Self-Questioning), and of comparing society to a large river, and wanting to grow while struggling in the current (Flow).

This brand name, influenced by Kamo no Chomei's Hojoki, was born from the designer's desire to constantly think about what role a brand can play in society, how it can contribute to society and the people around it, and how it can better circulate profits.
