LVMH-backed privaty equity firm L Catterton has ac

LVMH-backed privaty equity firm L Catterton has acquired a majority stake in Kapital, a Japanese clothing company founded in 1985 by Toshikiyo Hirata.

According to the Greenwich, Connecticut-based firm's website, the purchase was made last year, however, the company hasn't provided any details on the size of the transcation. The change of hands follows the death of Hirata in April of last year.

According to Hypebeast, "Kapital was formally founded in 1985 in Kojima, the district in Japan’s Okayama prefecture known as the birthplace of Japanese denim. Hirata-san first founded the denim label in 1948 while living in the United States as a karate teacher, heavily inspired by the American denim aesthetic. He was one of the early Japanese collectors who traveled to America at the time in search of 'vintage gold' and went on to study denim-making techniques in Kojima in the ’80s."

L Catterton is led by co-CEOs J. Michael Chu and Scott Dahnke. Originally Catterton Partners, the fund merged with Bernard Arnault's family office and LVMH in 2016 to create L Catterton.

Some of L Catterton's notable investments include Birkenstock, Peloton, Miami Design District, Stripes, Ganni and Etro, among others.
