Speed Emon Ukiyo-E / Sashiko Driving Glove "The Great Wave off Kanagawa"

SPEED EMON® 刺し子ドライビンググローブ — 浮世絵 (ukiyo-e)Collection

Born from the spirit of Japan’s late-90s street racers — elevated through Japanese art and craftsmanship.

The SPEED EMON® 刺し子ドライビンググローブ Premium Collection brings together the rebellious spirit of 走り屋 (hashiriya) culture with two distinctly Japanese artistic traditions: 刺し子 (sashiko) and 浮世絵 (ukiyo-e).

At the center of this premium edition is an intricately embroidered Ukiyo-e-inspired artwork across the knuckle padding. Rather than a conventional printed graphic, the artwork is rendered through embroidery, giving the design dimension, texture, and a crafted character that can be both seen and felt. Inspired by the visual language of traditional Japanese woodblock prints, the embroidered artwork transforms the glove into something beyond functional driving gear — a wearable expression of Japanese automotive culture and art.

The wrist strap carries our signature Sashiko-inspired stitching, drawing from the traditional reinforcement stitching that has been part of Japanese textile craftsmanship for generations. Against the expressive Ukiyo-e embroidery, the geometric Sashiko detailing creates a contrast between two traditions: illustrative art and textile craft, reinterpreted through a modern motorsport lens.

Embroidered 「爆走衛門」 on the finger represents the spirit of Bakusou Emon — fearless speed, individuality, and loyalty to the road. Finished with the SPEED EMON crest and carefully selected materials, every detail reflects our philosophy of preserving the character of Japan’s golden street-racing era while creating something distinctly our own.
