The dyeing was done by dye master Fukumoto. 〇About Alveri Bespoke “Bespoke” is a tailoring term that refers to tailoring clothes through repeated discussions with customers. Alveri Bespoke was born as if humans were having a dialogue with the forest in order to leave a rich natural environment for the future. We would like to develop it into a lifestyle brand that utilizes the material and transforms it into uniforms and various other items through dialogue with customers, leading to a better future for the environment and people. And none of the products we offer have the same design, and they are created as original uniforms through dialogue with the customer. We would like to deliver Alveri Bespoke products to hotels, inns, and other
accommodation facilities that share the same aspirations as us. Wearing our products made from thinned wood and dyed with plants will make you think about the future of a rich earth. We hope that we can help create a sustainable world. 〇Alveri’s thoughts Mass production and mass consumption that prioritize profits are not suitable for creating a sustainable society. A sustainable society is not one that pursues profits, but one that minimizes the impact on the shared assets of humanity, including the global environment, and prioritizes passing on to the next generation. Our efforts are based on
coexistence and prosperity with nature, and are based on activities to preserve optimal forests, protect forest ecosystems, and connect to the next generation while minimizing the impact on the global environment, such as the decline of mountain flood control and desertification. We will create a consortium (joint venture) in cooperation with local communities, companies, and organizations to protect and conserve forest environments, as well as promote technology sharing, human resource development, and awareness raising. We aim to create a sustainable society that prioritizes coexistence and co-prosperity with the Earth while protecting the forest environments of each region.

(Below is the Kinoito Consortium website:This is an excerpt from https://kinoito.jp/.) “Wood thread” is a fiber material made from natural wood. This is also called cellulose fiber. “Wood thread” is used for various purposes due to its natural origin and excellent adaptability to the environment. “Wood thread” is made from wood, a sustainable raw material, and does not require chemical processing during the manufacturing process, making it an
environmentally friendly material. Wood thread products are also biodegradable, reducing waste issues. Utilizing forest resources that require thinning In order to promote healthy forest growth and protect ecosystems, Alveri makes effective use of thinned wood. This initiative is an important step towards healthy forest growth and maintaining harmony between local communities and the environment. We provide a new model for resource circulation, leading the way to a future in which we coexist with nature. 〇Wood thread spun by craftsmen Alveri products are carefully crafted by artisans. They use wood thread, a universal material, to provide high-quality items. The delicate finish created by the skilled craftsmanship of the artisans gives each piece a sense of warmth and a story. 〇 Commitment to high fashion sensitivity We believe that sustainability and fashion can coexist. Alveri pursues timeless design and sophisticated style while incorporating fashion. We believe that making choices that are kind to the earth will be one of the choices that make our customers shine.
