Big Yank

Founded in 1919 in Chicago by Reliance Manufacturing, Big Yank has established itself as a reference in American workwear. The brand is known for its durable, functional garments that combine comfort and innovation. Behind its timeless aesthetic, Big Yank patented iconic details such as storm cuffs and the famous “Gacha” and “Mountain” cigarette pockets, designed to protect their contents from moisture.

After years of dormancy, the brand has been revived under the vision of Japanese designer Kinji Teramoto and his 35 Summers group. Today, production remains true to the original pieces, entirely crafted in Japan—an uncompromising approach that preserves the legacy of authentic and enduring workwear.
