About the brand

ALBERTON is a material brand that originated in the United States with the concept of vintage and military, and is developing a different item that makes the most of the material.

In order to preserve the weaving standards of 1870 as much as possible, we use the same looms as at that time and make full use of modern weaving technology to create products with zero compromise 。

The fabric currently used by the U.S. military is imported and processed domestically

We have developed an original flame-retardant material through joint development with a major raw material manufacturer for outdoor applications

SHINNJI KOMATSU

Hello, my name is Komatsu from ALBETON. I was engaged in fabric processing for more than 10 years at a spinning dyeing factory, and then I was involved in product planning, processing development, and canvas branding business including weaving and processing from yarn at a trading company. And I learned that there was a company ALBERTON, the creator of the armyduck that existed from 1870 to 1930. Together with supplier factories that decided to reprint ALBERTON in Japan, where there is a possibility that the standards of that time can be reprinted, and agreed As a full-fledged American duck fabric manufacturer from Japan, we launched the ALBERTON brand in 2016. Although we are a fabric manufacturer, we have made use of our know-how in sewing OEM to create the charm of ALBERTON We are particular about making products.

Making the impossible possible. Reviving the old and lost American standard.

While working in textile direction, I met a vintage collector in Japan and had the opportunity to see materials from the old American Duck standard. I was shocked to learn about ALBERTON, an American manufacturer that existed until 1935, and decided to reprint ALBERTON, but unfortunately there are almost no factories in the United States today that have the equipment to make the thick back fabric of 1950. Only a few looms remain in Japan, but from the perspective of the cost of supplying parts and maintenance when they break, it is difficult for aging looms to survive in the future.

It is expected that it will not be able to operate in the not-too-distant future. At the time of the launch of ALBERTON, which develops American ducks, this was inevitably a matter of concern.

At that time, I got information that there was still a shuttle loom made by Iwama in the dead stock. However, there are many difficulties ahead. In order for this project to be successful, we first needed the machines of the time. It is essential to have a machine shop that has the know-how to operate the antiques, and a machine shop that installs and operates the machine to weave it. A factory that produces more than 200 small shuttle looms and is truly worthy of being called a shuttle meister participated in the ALBERTON project, and this seemingly impossible triple whammy came together by a chance coincidence, and the ALBERTON project was started.

What are we doing?

ALBERTON's brand concept is vintage and military.

It is to eliminate compromise as much as possible and stick to the real thing.

The military line has a lineup of U.S. military materials.

With the launch of the vintage line, we analyze fabrics from various perspectives, such as old books, materials, and actual fabrics, and reconstruct fabrics according to the standards of the time.

It is a fabric with ears woven on an old-style power loom, and there is a blue line at the end of the fabric. This is woven as a guide to put a sewing machine in during sewing, and the standard dimensions are set in detail for each application, which suggests that it was used in a wide range of fields. ALBERTON 15OZ and 25OZ faithfully reproduce this blue line according to the US federal standards at the time.

In 2023, ALBERTON® will move from Japan to the United States.

The acquisition of the trademark in the United States was approved, and with the consent of the descendants, the name ALBERTON, which collapsed in 1935, was inherited and crowned in the land of Japan.

Commitment to the product

ALBERTON® is a brand of American duck dough.

Our main business in Japan and overseas is the supply of fabrics to apparel and brands, and as a material for products planned by our clients.

It is used.

As a completely different line, the brand owner as a place to express the world and concept of ALBERTON® without fences

We have started an original goods business with the theme of making what we wanted to make by making use of the know-how of OEM production.

A bag for storing coal that has been reprinted based on old American materials.

We obtained and analyzed the literature and sample products of the fabric standards at that time.

Faithfully reproduced

The owner, who is a military geek, purchased military materials ARMY DUCK from the United States and started wholesaling fabrics under the ALBERTON brand, but that was not enough, so he made a fabric with improved flame retardant performance (10OZ ARMY DUCK GUNMAKU), and made a US pup tent that is now out of print.

SLIVA KNIT, which came into Japan in 1960, has been reprinted using a flame retardant material that absorbs infrared rays and generates heat.

We made an outdoor blanket by combining flame-retardant and waterproof tent fabrics.

One of the features of ALBERTON is that the owner, who also enjoys the outdoors, carefully repeats the performance test and releases it after being convinced.
