J Quality logo guarantees "made in Japan" quality for apparel

In a push to support clothes that were made in Japan, the Japanese garment industry supported by the Japan Fashion Industry Council, has introduced a new certification system called J Quality for clothes. To qualify, a product's entire manufacturing process (except the production of the raw materials) - from weaving textiles, knitting, dyeing and processing to sewing the finished garment - would have to have taken place in Japan.
