The Banks Journal mission is simple – to merge style & functionwith a sustainable approach to design and development.
Banks Journal is a modern clothing label inspired by coastal living and a love of design. Thanks to its founders, it’s infused with a unique blend of Japanese and Australian heritage. Masa Shibahara and Motoo Noda grew up under the neon lights of Tokyo. Tim Cochran and Rama McCabe spent their childhood in the creative hub of Byron Bay.
Our innovative collective of surfers, designers, artists and photographers are all bound by their curiosity and share the desire to make the world a better place.
