Workpermit 34 - okunensha Story: Every year, as she prepares for winter, several letters arrive to a certain conductor. The contents of these letters are all memories of the sender. After receiving the letters, she decides on the destination and date, and sends the tickets for the day to each sender. The train she drives is called the 'Memory Car,' and it carries many people several times a year to preserve the year's memories and welcome the next. As passengers visit other people's memories, they encounter memories from the past that are almost forgotten, and as they visit their own memories, they look back on the year. They preserve the journey as a memorial, and those who ride it welcome a new year.

The brand name ASEEDONCLÖUD (ASEEDONCLÖUD)
It comes from the name of the picture book I first created as a child (the name 'Riding the Clouds').
While preserving the beauty of old workwear seen in late 19th~early 20th century photographs, the design blends wit and humor into the identity behind that beauty.
The materials are based on natural materials, sometimes with a sense of era, and sometimes recreated from antiques.
As a concept, each season draws inspiration from the lifestyles of various professions, infusing the scent of that life into the designs.
