The Story Behind the Words — Iemoto’s Essay —

Iemoto speaks about “effort”

I’m the Iemoto—the head of ORERYU SOUHONKE. The word "effort" written on clothes is not for display. This is to show who I am now without hiding it. Challenges don't start until you're no longer afraid. Take a step with fear in mind, and if you fail, learn how to stand. Repeating this will become your own strength.

Words are not the answer to life. Still, it can be used as a small handle to change your direction the moment you stop. “Effort“ is not a word that imposes a good lesson. It's a signal to accept yourself, even on days when things don't go well, and choose the next step. Moving forward while smiling is the essence of my style. Therefore, “effort“ is not just a word that you just read. The clothes you choose in the morning, the conversations you have with your friends, the moments you want to stand out in, and the signals that make today's actions just a little more interesting.

Challenges don't start until you're no longer afraid. Take a step with fear in mind, and if you fail, learn how to stand. Repeating this will become your own strength. Even the same word has different meanings depending on the experience of the wearer. That's fine.

The more flashy your words are, the more polite your actions should be. When the letters on your heart and your daily consideration are lined up, that piece becomes cool. Be prepared to be laughed at, and don't forget to respect others.

“Effort“ is a substitute for a long self-introduction. Even if you are silent, the letters on your chest will speak first and call out to others who share your scent. Clothing becomes more than just cloth, it becomes a signal between people.

Finally, if you put "effort" in your heart, I want you to choose a step that suits you, and not just words. It's my style, including that appearance. ― Iemoto, ORERYU SOUHONKE
