Daiki Suzuki is a Japanese-born American fashion designer and founder of Engineered Garments. His brother Takuji Suzuki founded the brand ts(s).[1]

Style

Suzuki says of his work, "I try to choose good dynamic designs with patterns that can be modified for today's use. Usually I re-work the fits as lightly as possible, being careful not to re-produce vintage designs—adding some things and taking some off, balancing it out to make it look new."[2]

Woolrich Woolen Mills

In the 1970s Suzuki was one of the first buyers of Woolrich fashion in Japan.[3] In 2006 he became a designer for Woolrich Woolen Mills in America.[4]

Engineered Garments

Suzuki founded Engineered Garments as a fashion design and production company in 1999. Engineered Garments produces variations of sportsgear and hunting wear.[4]
