About the original
The Plus Team-Demi is a palm-sized desktop tool case measuring 4.88 x 3.35 x 1.38 inches, holding eight miniature working stationery tools: scissors, a stapler, a utility cutter, liquid glue, a tape dispenser, a 10 cm ruler, a retractable tape measure, and a SIM-card eject pin. All eight tools are fully functional at reduced scale rather than symbolic. Plus Corporation of Japan first released the set in 1984 as a traveling office kit; industrial designer Naoto Fukasawa redesigned the current-generation case in 2020 and it won that year's Good Design Award. The FW21 Supreme version is the same Plus-manufactured TD-001 set with a box logo on the case.
About Plus
Plus is a Japanese stationery and office-products manufacturer founded in 1948 in Tokyo as Chiyoda Stationery, formed through the merger of the Imaizumi Shoten and Suzuki Shoten wholesalers. The company renamed to Plus Corporation and expanded across cutting tools, correction tape, staplers, file holders, and office furniture. Its Fitcut Curve scissors use a curved blade angle that maintains a constant 30-degree cutting angle along the length of the blade, and the Kes'pon line of identity-protection stamps and the Deco Rush decorative tape series are category staples in Japan. Supreme collaborated with Plus on co-branded scissors as part of its accessories lineup.
