About us

Our story

Otaru Wear began as a vision driven by passion and a deep love for anime. When we started, we noticed a significant gap-there was no high-quality embroidered clothing that allowed anime fans to showcase their favorite series in a stylish and meaningful way. Instead of waiting for someone else to address this need, we took a leap of faith. Otaru Wear was born to not only fill this gap but also to build a brand that connects with fans who see their clothing as an extension of their identity and story.

The journey was anything but easy. Friends, family, and even close supporters doubted whether such a niche idea could succeed. Leaving behind the stability of a traditional 9-to-5 job to pursue this dream was seen as a risk. But we believed in our vision. We believed anime fans deserved better than mass-produced, generic apparel. We wanted to create designs that embody individuality, fandom, and personality-all meticulously stitched into every garment.

Our Growth

Over the past 3+ years, Otaru Wear has grown into a thriving community of anime enthusiasts. With over 80,000 followers on Instagram and tens of thousands of orders shipped worldwide, what started as an idea has become a movement. Each order and every piece of feedback reminds us why we embarked on this journey. It's not just about selling clothing-it's about inspiring fans and creating something that resonates deeply with them.

The path has not been without challenges. There were moments of doubt, late nights filled with uncertainty, and obstacles that made us question the future. However, we found strength in the incredible anime community that rallied behind us. Every design we create reflects our unwavering commitment to quality and creativity. Whether you're wearing it to celebrate your favorite series or to showcase your personal style, our clothing is designed to make you feel seen, valued, and proud.
