Isamu Katayama Backlash

Founded in 1999 by Isamu Katayama in Japan, Backlash is a leather brand celebrated for its uncompromising craftsmanship and material innovation. Drawn to leather from childhood through his father’s love of motorcycles, Katayama built Isamu Katayama Backlash on meticulous hand-processing and experimental dyeing — producing rugged, sculptural leather jackets, hand-finished bags, and boots prized by collectors for their depth of character and longevity over mass production.

At ROAMWALK, we source authentic Isamu Katayama Backlash archive and vintage pieces directly from select Japanese shops — leather jackets, bags, boots, and accessories. Every item is hand-checked and ships worldwide from Japan.
