About Us
USAATO
Cotton, Hemp, Silk
Ecru thread
indicates the complete color of life itself.
Dyed thread with natural dyes indicates
the overlapping color of each life.
With a clatter,
the thread is woven into cloth,
and then change into clothes.
Why do we feel so relieved,
when wrapped in the clothes?
The clothes have been made from living beings
and with rustic handiwork.
Our bodies gradually remember
the distant memory which has been
forgotten in the process.
Everything connects and resonates.
Wear the clothes,
regain yourself fast and let you shine.
Then,
we want to create with you
a universe where all lives are in harmony.
USAATO SIAM
It is the cloth for Usaato clothes that the villagers in Thailand and Laos dye thread with natural dyes around them and weave the thread into cloth with handmade rustic waving machines.
They decide what colors to dye and what patterns to weave.
We value not to match popular colors, designs nor standards, but to weave as they want to weave.
Beautiful cloth is the nature of the villages as it is, and the wisdom of living that has been passed down for a long time. The background and creativity of each weaver must also be there.
This cloth is collected in “USAATO SIAM,” the production base of Usaato clothes.
And there, clothes are made according to the design of Sato Usaburo so that the individuality of each cloth can be harnessed.
The flow from sewing to distribution is not stopped as much as possible, and many people work together to connect the benefits of the nature from hand to hand, and as a result, the clothes are created.
Usaburo Sato
He was born in Hokkaido in 1948.
After working as a corporate designer in Tokyo, he engaged in the creation of haute couture in Brussels, Belgium.
From 1994 he traveled around the world in search of high-energy cloth and moved to Chiang Mai, Thailand in 1996.

felt like “wearing nature.”
