Human Made is a Japanese fashion label, founded by fashion designer and music producer/DJ NIGO, in 2010. NIGO started up this brand in order to create things he was not able to with his revolutionary, trendsetting streetwear brand - A Bathing Ape (BAPE). With graphic designer Sk8thing, Human Made ventured into creating whimsical pieces of both quality and authenticity to reflect the pre-1960’s.

The founder's venture into fashion started in a small store selling a few Bape T-shirts and camouflage print hoodies, which became very popular among teenagers. In 2002, Nigo released the Bapesta sneaker, which according to BBC presenter Jonathan Ross, later became the "epitome of collectable footwear." The sneaker resembles Nike's Air Force 1 design, but instead of the swoosh on the side, it has Nigo's Bapesta logo that is a star with a lightning zap extending out of the star. In 2005, Nigo partnered with Pharrell Williams to create and launch the streetwear brands Billionaire Boys Club and Ice Cream footwear. In 2017, Nigo became the creative director for Uniqlo's UT brand and his new brand Human Made.
