created by Keita Ogawa in 2009, the 1st collection was released for the FW10. The brand focuses on leather jackets mainly, using Guidi leather exclusively.
Keita Ogawa used to work for Isamu Katayama Backlash for 4 years before he decided to run solo. He is now based in Firenze, all the production is made in Italy.
Jackets have no designer label and the carelabel is very minimalist, only the zipper pullers and buttons are engraved "Incarnation". Each jackets feature 2 rivets with the logo on the left side, under which is engraved the serial number of the item. All trims are made of silver 925 except for the YKK Japan zippers.
I have found very few information about the brand and items, but here is what I could find about the leather used. Each jackets has a reference #, the 1st number being the type of leather used :
111 oiled baby calf - oiled wax hand finish
113 horse suede
116 oiled babycalf - mat finish
121 Babycalf garment dyed - oiled wax hand finish
211 oiled calf, garment dyed, oiled wax hand finish, 0.6mm
212 Calf 0.8mm
213 calf suede
221 Oiled Baby Calf garment dyed (not sure about this one)
311 Calf 0.6mm
313 Buffalo
315 horse hide
316 Horse double face
321 baby calf with somewhat treatment
322 ?
I have no idea about where and by whom the production is actually made, but Ogawa does the last waxing step himself.
For some reasons Japan shops carrying the products are asked to have an open price policy - you can bargain with the shop , jackets are sold between 190 -300.000JPY.
