On the inspiration behind this African Cowboy collection and the brand’s price points;

It’s not easy being African, to identify as African is to identify with struggle its understanding the true meaning of a fighting spirit. So Africa inspired this collection and what it means to live in modern-day Africa

My pieces are quite affordable the price point depends on the range. We have the “Tokyo James Man” line which is at a higher price point than the “Tokyo James Black Label.” For the Tokyo James Black Label, our suits start from N95,000

Speaking on fabrics used, he said;

Fabrication is very important to us as a brand, we go for fabrics that do the talking [for us]. What I mean by that is, you can see the quality from looking or touching the fabric which helps justfy our price point. The Tokyo James mainline a suit starts from N180,000 depending on the fabric.

On his location choice for the campaign, he said;

The shoot was done in Cape Town South Africa am totally in love with that city it’s peace full and simple tranquil.
