ABOUT US
SAIKOU APPAREL
最高 (さいこう) - Saikou
Japanese for best, the greatest or finest
Saikou Apparel is Scottish run company directed by Ross and Maizy from a small office in Glasgow. Inspired by their love of Japanese fashion they aimed to bring the world a unique take on East Asian street wear. Creating eyecatching, fun and wearable designs with the quality you would expect at competitive prices.
BRIDGING THE GAP BETWEEN FANDOM AND FASHION
We aim to create a fun space which prides itself on accessibility through gender neutrality and sizing equity. We hope to encourage creatives; giving them a platform and building a community where they can thrive built on tolerance, mental health positivity and inclusivity. We pride ourselves on our transparency and personally handling everything from design, packing, right through to customer service in house to ensure the greatest customer experience for those who choose to support us.
SMALL COMPANY, BIG HEART
Saikou is a family run business with a small dedicated team. We have ingratiated ourselves in local scenes and are passionate about our hobbies and interests particularly Music, Alternate Sports, Anime, Asian Restaurants; and of course gaming!
We plan on releasing ranges to promote our new branding angled at supporting the communities who have continued to support us. We are looking forward to completing our ARCANA range this year and being more active in the convention scene moving into a post-lockdown world.
We hope you are as excited to own some of these products as we are to be producing them. While stock may not last longer than the Sakura blossoms we are confident their beauty will.
SAIKOU X ROSSBOOMSOCKS
Ross has used big companies to distribute merch in the past and was unhappy with the experience. This time he decided he wanted to provide a better service for his fans and ensure everyone involved was treated fairly. By handling all stages of design, using locally sourced printing and hand package every order ourselves we can guarantee that every step from conception to your front door is handled with care and enthusiasm. Thank you for supporting us! Please peruse our selection of limited stock items. We really hope you will love our merch as much as we do. Due to the success of our beanies and hoodies that we launched in December 2019 we will be reissuing them in small quantity in early 2020 - be sure to get them while you can!
