Shoichi Aoki founded FRUiTS in 1997. Originally a photographer, Aoki noticed the range of Tokyo fashion during the 90s and began taking pictures of the most vivid and innovative outfits.
He found interest in the individuality of the youth that would frequent the Harajuku district, who would not only wear sport brands like DC Shoes, Comme des Garçons, Vivienne Westwood, and Hysteric Glamour, but also DIY pieces.
In 2017, Aoki announced the end of the magazine, claiming that “there are no more cool kids to photograph”.

We only offer issues from the first 5 years of FRUITS (1997 to 2001).
For us, this is the most emblematic period of Shoichi Aoki’s work (and the rarest issues).
