To prevent forest damage and protect crops
The precious life that people take to live
Don't forget the blessings and gratitude of nature without leaving it as it is
Reborn as a leather product using wild animal leather (Gibier leather).
Through MAKAMI products, we hope to create moments in our daily lives that remind us of our roots.
“Makami” is derived from “Oguchi no Makami”, who has been worshiped as a sacred beast in Japan since ancient times as an entity that protects crops from deer and wild boars.
Japan is an island country, so the food self-sufficiency rate is low, and there are many mountains, so the farmland is not large. For people involved in agriculture and forestry, the damage caused by wild animals (mainly deer and wild boar) is serious, and many animals sacrifice their lives for human survival.
However, we do not stop at exterminating them. We respect their lives and use them as important resources (assets). (In Japan, there is also a history of worshiping mountain beasts as gods and paying awe and respect since ancient times.)
