Remi Relief is a Japanese apparel brand founded by designer Yutaka Goto around 2007-2008; its name combines 'remix' and 'relief,' reflecting a philosophy of stripping garments to essential, timeless forms. The brand draws visual inspiration from Californian skate and surf culture and 1960s-70s retro style. Its best-known technical signature is 'SP processing,' a proprietary treatment reproducing the fading behavior of direct and sulfur dyes used from the 1930s through the late 1960s; the SP Processed Fleece line has been part of the range since the brand's founding. Beyond fleece, the technique is applied across sweatshirts, T-shirts and denim.
