Founded in 1948 in Ueno’s Ameyoko, Jeans Shop Maruseru relocated to its current location in Sumiyoshi, Koto Ward, in 2020.
The shop stocks premium denim brands from iconic American brands and Japanese brands. Japanese denim has a reputation for premium craftsmanship and quality, as shown by its use of Indigo dyeing techniques and imported denim and sewing machines that create a vintage-feeling product. Whether you are a denim enthusiast or looking for the perfect pair of jeans, you have many cuts of denim to choose from.
Bell-bottom jeans bring back the 70s style.
They are unique for their snug fit around the hips and thighs and gradual flare starting at the knee. High-waisted bell-bottom jeans are typically flattering on all body shapes; the flare adds a retro vibe to your outfit if you pair them with platforms or heeled boots.
One of the charms of this shop is that you can find jeans you don’t often see in other stores.
From fit to color to details, they are jeans for anyone. Whether you are looking for a slim, modern cut or a relaxed vintage fit, Maruseru offers it.
The jeans feature a special hemming style called the “morning cut,” which creates a difference in front and back length. This is perfect for pairing with boots. This advanced hemming technique takes just 20 minutes. Best of all, hemming is free with your purchase. At “Jeans Shop Maruseru,” they used to tailor large-sized jeans originally worn by Americans, adjusting the length to fit Japanese customers better. This made it possible to wear jeans with a more fitted and stylish silhouette, which may have helped popularize jeans in Japan.
The shop also offers a great selection of accessories, such as belts and hats, that pair perfectly with jeans.
The belts come in various styles, from classic leather to casual canvas designs, ensuring a perfect match for any look.
