The Strike Skate & Tackle Shop × Kivami

At Kivami, our core mission is to bring the authentic, cutting-edge reality of Japanese fishing culture directly to European anglers. We don't just sell gear; we aim to provide a genuine, real-time window into the Japanese fishing scene, its subcultures, and the rapidly evolving trends shaping the JDM world.

To turn this vision into reality, Kivami operates an exclusive, permanent partnership with The Strike Skate & Tackle Shop - one of Japan’s most culturally grounded and influential tackle stores. Located at the absolute heart of the scene, The Strike is far more than a retail shop: It is a vital cultural hub where the community thrives, trends are born, and new concepts are forged. Rather than simply stocking shelves, The Strike actively collaborates with premier Japanese tackle manufacturers to design and develop groundbreaking new products from the ground up.

A Virtual Extension of Japan's Fishing Scene

Operating as the official virtual extension of The Strike in Europe, we bridge the geographic gap to give European anglers unprecedented, inner-circle access to the Japanese scene:

  • Direct JDM Insights: We bring the latest news, underground subcultures, and trends straight from the waters of Japan to Europe, keeping you connected to what is happening in the scene right now.
  • The Strike Collaborative Items: This dedicated segment of our catalogue features those exclusive products co-designed by The Strike in direct partnership with premier Japanese tackle manufacturers. From custom lures to limited-edition apparel, every piece in this selection is engineered together to bring you the cutting edge of modern Japanese angling culture.

This project is a continuous cultural exchange - a dedicated pipeline built by anglers, for anglers, connecting the heart of Japan's fishing community directly to your waters.
