Matsumoto Hoji Toad Hoodie - Famous Japanese Art Pullover

The Story Behind the Print

A masterpiece of character. The Kaito Japan Design "Matsumoto Hoji Toad" Hoodie features one of the most beloved and expressive woodblock prints in Japanese history. Originally appearing in the 1785 anthology Meika Gafu (Album of Famous Painters), Hoji’s grumpy toad has captured hearts for centuries. It represents the concept of Wabi-Sabi—finding beauty and soul in the imperfect and the eccentric. It is a reminder of Nagomi (Harmony) between serious art and a lighthearted spirit. Designed for the individual who appreciates the depth of Japanese history but isn't afraid to wear a bit of legendary personality.
