TABIRUSHI wants to energize Japan by combining the individuality of creators and the uniqueness of the region. This is a printed product brand born from this idea.
The brand began on January 1, 2024. Our creator, who launched the brand, was affected by the Noto Peninsula Earthquake and was shocked to see that the “normal scenery that existed here until yesterday” changed in an instant.
Let’s do what we can as creators – with this in mind, we launched TABIRUSHI, a printing product brand that combines regional
characteristics and creators.
