Monitaly is the brainchild of designer Yuki Matsuda who also runs moccasin shoe brand Yuketen. The brand name is derived from Mr Matsuda's three biggest passions in life: His daughter Monica, the Military, in particular the incredible quality of Mil Spec fabrications (which is also seen in all Monitaly pieces) & Italy. A serious vintage collector & enthusiast, Yuki Matsuda bases all Monitaly designs on vintage apparel, updated to fit great yet utilizing the same attention to detail & quality. As Yuki Matsuda puts it himself:
Yuki Matsuda by Dan Chaparian
"I'm determined to make clothing that I would love to wear. My background is in vintage so I've seen so many great vintage clothing pieces, but vintage fit is usually two-dimensional or disproportionate, and it's not comfortable to wear in any practical manner. But I know how to fix these discrepancies, so I decided to overcome my frustration with ill-fitting clothing by making my own. My goals for Monitaly are great fit with impeccable attention to detail. Made in U.S.A. is very important to me too."
