Season 6

Repurposing used wine corks, old clothing... even eggshells into interior design materials, upcycling expert Miura Seiya is in high demand with companies looking for ways to reduce their waste.

With falling demand and fewer occasions to wear kimonos, Tajiri Daichi turns discarded kimono fabric into stylish shoes, bringing tradition into everyday life and helping to keep it alive.

Accessory designer Kojima Tadamasa and veteran textile maker Fukunaga Yoshihisa turn discarded fire hoses into durable bags, giving them new life while generating minimal waste.

At Miwa Sayuri's secondhand shop, nothing has a price tag. Bring in three items you no longer wear and take home three you love — a quiet movement and gathering place for people who treasure clothes.
