About Battenwear

Battenwear makes outdoor-inspired apparel that blends classic design with modern function, for daily adventures in the city and beyond. The range runs from heavy outerwear and cosy sweats to beach-ready summer gear and handy accessories. Founder Shinya Hasegawa has collected American casual clothing since his teens in Tokyo, and the label draws on the best innovative details of 1960s to 1990s outdoor and sports clothing, cut to contemporary fits. It started on a coffee table in Brooklyn in 2011 and moved its headquarters to Tokyo in 2025. Pieces are made with small family businesses across the US, Japan, India and Canada, wherever special items with great history and technique are made.
