Doberman Inc is known as one of Japan’s top Hip-Hop groups, but can they make it in the urban fashion world? Well, that’s what they are out to do with “Domain,” their new line of urban clothing.

In case you haven’t heard of them, Doberman Inc is a group of emcees that was formed with the help of big time producer Bach Logic in 2000. Bach Logic has worked with many artists before and after the group’s formation, including Seeda, Exile, and Sowelu, and has done remixes for many other stars, but he produces almost all of Doberman Inc’s material. The group consisted of five members until December of last year when MAB left the group, leaving Tomogen, Kubo-C, GS, and P-Cho. In August, they released a “Best of” album entitled The Best ~ Time 4 Some Action that also includes three new tracks, Brand New Day, Hypnotic (feat. Jay’ed), and a different version of Exile, Sowelu, and Doberman Inc’s collaboration, 24 Karats, that focuses on the four-man emcee group.

Just like their music, Doberman Inc combines mainstream style with eccentric taste to design clothes for Domain. The line currently has three styles, Spring, Summer, and Autumn/Winter. Many of thier clothes have eccentric designs created by the group, letters representing Doberman Inc or Domain, or even names of songs or albums on them. They tend to use dark colored clothing with bright or even pastel colored designs on it as well. The group even uses very non-urban looking designs, like pictures of rubber duckies and rainbows, on thier clothing, in a BAPE sort of fashion. If you are looking for serious Hip-Hop clothing, don’t count Domain out though. Tomogen’s 06 -Outside- line under the Spring collection has just what you’re looking for. Their newly designed Autumn/Winter collection has some great clothes to not only keep you warm, but also keep you looking fresh to death. The line includes everything from jean jackets to long overcoats. You can view their line of clothes and locations of stores in Japan that sell Domain on their official website, http://www.domain-clothing.com.

Doberman Inc is looking to represent Osaka in the urban fashion world, but can they topple the king of Asian Hip-Hop clothes, BAPE? What do you think of Domain and/or Doberman Inc’s music?
