Napron | Aprons Designed to Coordinate with Your Wardrobe
Napron | Napron
Stylish and practical aprons that coordinate with your clothing.
Introducing Napron, the apron brand.
Originally, aprons were called 'Napron,' but the indefinite article 'a' attached to 'a napron' was misunderstood as 'an napron,' leading to the word 'apron.'──Introducing Napron, an apron brand that reimagines 'Napron,' which served as workwear from the mid-1900s, as a product tailored for modern lifestyles.

For those searching for a stylish apron.
Napron is a new brand launched by Ray, who also develops the hat brand DECHO in Okayama. DECHO began in Kurashiki City in 2003, with a concept of creating hats that age over time, inspired by themes of workwear, military, Native American culture, and vintage or deadstock materials.
Napron aprons are characterized by designs that suit a wide range of styles, from kitchen wear to workwear and town casual. They range from elaborate models with leather pockets on the chest, stenciled details, and aged finishes, toギャルソン (garçon) types that can be worn in town layered with vests or shirts, slimmer silhouettes, and stylish, smaller designs. Like their hats, these aprons offer a handmade warmth and develop character with long-term use.
