About the original
Kojima Shōten is a Kyoto chōchin (paper lantern) workshop founded in 1789, currently run by tenth-generation craftsman Ryo Kojima. Each lantern is built using the kyo-jibari method — a single bamboo strip wound around a wooden mold, then layered with handmade washi paper and finished with hand-painted calligraphy; a 30 cm lantern takes one full day to complete. The FW2022 Supreme version is a chōchin hand-painted with the Supreme box logo by Kojima craftsmen; released September 22, 2022 at $298.
