HUMAN MADE is the label NIGO founded in 2010, built on vintage American workwear and sportswear reinterpreted with the heart logo and a cast of animal graphics — the duck, the tiger and the polar bear — under the slogan "Gears for Futuristic Teenagers". It is a Japanese brand first: the main stores are in Japan, most releases sell out there in the first days, and the brand sells mainly through its own Japanese stores and online shop. That is why HUMAN MADE has a busy Japanese resale market on Mercari, Rakuma and Yahoo Auctions, and why overseas buyers use a proxy: OneMall gives you the Japanese address the store or seller needs, pays in yen, receives the item at our Japan warehouse and forwards it to you.
Graphic tees and sweats carry most of the volume, and Japanese sellers list them by the animal or logo on the print rather than by season. The heart logo is ハート, the duck is ダック, the tiger is タイガー, the polar bear is ポーラーベア or シロクマ, and collaborations are listed under コラボ with the partner name.
| Item | Japanese listing name | What to check in the photos |
|---|---|---|
| Heart logo tee | ハート Tシャツ / ハートロゴ | Print condition; the neck tag |
| Duck / tiger / polar bear graphics | ダック / タイガー / ポーラーベア | Which graphic, front or back print |
| Sweatshirts and hoodies | スウェット / パーカー | Ribbing, pilling, fading |
| Varsity and coach jackets | スタジャン / コーチジャケット | Lining, snaps, patches |
| Caps and beanies | キャップ / ビーニー | Sweatband wear |
| Collaborations | コラボ + partner | Both brands' tags present |
Ask for the tags and the 実寸 measurements, then read the seller's condition notes. HUMAN MADE garments carry a woven neck label and a printed wash label, and Japanese sellers photograph both when asked. The measurements matter because HUMAN MADE is cut loose in the vintage-Americana way and the letter size tells you less than the numbers. Provenance wording such as 国内正規 is the seller's statement; OneMall is a proxy buying service, not the seller, and does not guarantee authenticity, so decide on the photos.
From two layers: the brand's own channel and the resale market. The brand sells mainly through its Japanese stores and its own online shop. Everything on Mercari, Rakuma, Yahoo Auctions and 2nd STREET is therefore secondhand or unworn resale from Japanese buyers, and it is where the sold-out drops reappear. ZOZOTOWN's used section also carries the brand. For a proxy order, a listing on any of these sites can be ordered through OneMall, and a product page from the brand's own online shop can be pasted as a link.
| Where | What you typically find |
|---|---|
| HUMAN MADE stores and online shop | Current season; order by pasting the product link |
| Mercari, Rakuma, Yahoo Fleamarket | Recent drops unworn or lightly worn, tees and sweats |
| Yahoo Auctions | Older seasons, collaborations, outerwear |
| 2nd STREET, ZOZOTOWN used | Shop-graded secondhand pieces |
The item price in yen, OneMall's service fee and any domestic shipping the seller charges are paid when you order, with the fee shown before you confirm. The international shipping is a separate payment after the item reaches our Japan warehouse, and for HUMAN MADE it is where planning saves money: a tee is light and packs flat, while a varsity jacket or a stack of sweats is priced on weight and volume. Ordering from several sellers and consolidating into one parcel costs less than shipping each piece as it arrives. Import duty, where your country charges it, is collected on delivery by the carrier.
Type ヒューマンメイド, the katakana spelling most Japanese sellers use, and add the graphic or the item type; HUMAN MADE in Latin letters also works because many sellers write both. NIGO's name in katakana, ニゴー, appears in titles for collaborations and early pieces.

Use OneMall as your Japan proxy. We give you a Japanese address, pay the seller in yen, receive your HUMAN MADE order at our warehouse in Japan, then forward it to the USA and worldwide — you do not need a Japanese address, phone number or payment method.
Japanese stores and marketplaces carry Japan-exclusive releases and limited editions that never reach overseas retail. Shopping the Japanese market directly is the only way to reach that inventory.
OneMall searches Japan's major marketplaces and stores in one place — including Mercari, Yahoo Auctions, Amazon Japan, Rakuten, Rakuma, Yahoo Fleamarket, Suruga-ya, Animate and ZOZOTOWN — so you can compare HUMAN MADE listings across sites without opening a Japanese account on each one.
Yes. Items bought from different sellers are received at our warehouse in Japan and can be consolidated into a single parcel before international shipping, which lowers the per-item shipping cost.
OneMall does not guarantee authenticity. Brand items are bought on your behalf from Japanese stores and from sellers on Japanese marketplaces, and our purchase terms state that authenticity, quality and condition are not guaranteed, especially for used items. Read the listing photos and condition notes in full before ordering.
Absolutely! We specialize in helping customers access Japan-exclusive products and limited edition releases.
