There are folks who collect denim jeans, vintage clothing, leather goods, comic books, video games, sneakers, pens, watches and so much more. The Japanese seem to always have a jump on collecting cult objects, and Fire-King products are no exception.
Fire-King is an American brand of glassware and ovenware created by Anchor Hocking in the 1940′s. The company made many kinds of dishes, mugs and more and these vintage pieces are highly collectible items today. In 1976, Anchor Hocking ceased produciton of these wonderful Fire King products. In Japan, there are stores, magazines and books dedicated to vintage Fire-King products!
Of course, just like “heritage” jeans, a Japanese company got to work and have invested in old manufacturing processes (see below) in order to recreate a line of Heritage Fire King mugs. We have been collection Fire-King mugs for several years, so for our 5th anniversary we commissioned Fire-King Japan to make some custom mugs for us.
These 2 mugs are available now at our retailers worldwide.
See below and enjoy!…

The mugs are now Made in Japan using the same old painstaking methods that were used in the 1940′s in USA…

Yoshino san tells me that these jeans have never been washed and that all repairs were done by the gentleman who wore them. He works at a souvenir jacket shop in Ueno Tokyo called Yokosuka Jumper.

We say “Sugoi Atari!” (Fantastic Fades!)
