Founded by Japan-based top jockey Christophe Lemaire, CL is the only made-in-Japan apparel brand inspired by the world of horse racing.

Following my father's footsteps, I have achieved my dream of becoming a jockey. I feel lucky to be able to do a job I am passionate about. By promoting CL by C.LEMAIRE, my hope is to popularize horse racing culture and give qualitative items for the fans to cheer for the sport.
It is said that 6 million people cheer for horse racing in Japan, and probably 10 times more in the world.
However, there were no brand in Japan that produce qualitative clothes for fans to cheer for the horse racing.
CL by C.LEMAIRE encourages horse racing fans to become proud ambassadors, taking the streets in style and sharing positive messages (fashionable, sustainable, supporting local industries and charities…)
All collections are inspired by the colors and designs of horse racing.
Since our launch in 2022, we are grateful to the support received from leading department stores and from leading media, including netkeiba, LEON, WWD, and FASHIONSNAP. We are also very pleased with our collaboration with Silk Racing and Shadai Race Horse stables.
And above all, I am pleased to see fans wearing our horse-racing inspired collections at the racetrack and in our pop-up stores!"
