Do you ship internationally?

Yes. We offer international shipping with careful packing standards designed to protect delicate textiles and cultural objects.

What does museum-grade mean on your site?

Museum-grade refers to coherence and integrity: materials, technique, and condition align with a convincing internal logic and cultural presence.

How do you describe condition on vintage and antiques?

We describe condition with a collector’s lens, noting material aging, patina, and structural integrity so you can make confident decisions.

How should I care for Japanese vintage textiles and embroidery?

Avoid harsh light, humidity swings, and compression. Store with breathable protection and handle gently to preserve structure and surface.

How do I start collecting thoughtfully?

Begin with one category you truly connect with, learn its visual language, and expand slowly. Depth of understanding matters more than volume.

A tie-dyed T-shirt cut at random and remade by hand into loose summer half pants. With an elastic waist and a rough, playful character, they carry the COTE MER signature into the warmest months of the year.

The Piece

These versatile shorts are made from a tie-dyed T-shirt and are intended for summer, showing off the house character of COTE MER. The elastic waistband gives them a rough, relaxed style that can serve as the focal point of an outfit, and their baggy, hip-hop-leaning cut comes bleached, with wagara-inspired graphics.

Each pair is handmade in the atelier's own factory, so these are one of a kind in the world. Because every piece is randomly cut, individual differences will occur from one pair to the next.

COTE MER makes the most of materials that carry a feeling of Japan's history and tradition, using even small remnants so that the finished clothing is sustainable as well as stylish, for wearers who would rather not overlap with anyone else.
