Hello, New Neighbor
As 2026 approaches, the world feels like it’s shifting in quieter, more intentional ways.
Not louder, but more thoughtful.
People are slowing down.
Taking time to reflect.
Rethinking what truly matters.
Making room for things that last.
With that comes change.
New opportunities.
New faces.
New challenges.
And a renewed curiosity to explore, to play, and to move beyond what once felt familiar.
Hello, New Neighbor marks an important moment for KODANGS. It’s our way of saying hello as we begin a new chapter in North America.
After years of listening, learning, and spending time with people here, we’re grateful to take this step together with our growing KODANGS USA team and official distributor. This moment is built on care, trust, and a shared intention for how KODANGS can live and grow across places.
We’re landing in the Pacific Northwest, a region where city life and nature exist side by side. Where days can move from streets to trees, from work to the outdoors, without needing to change who you are. That balance reflects how we design and how we live. Practical. Adaptable. Expressive.
This launch isn’t just about arriving somewhere new. It’s about continuing our story. Connecting with a new community. And creating pieces that move with you through everyday life. Wherever you are, and wherever you’re headed, KODANGS is here to be part of the journey.
As a Thai brand, one of our long-standing goals has been to share the creative and artistic spirit of Thai people on a global stage, while allowing that identity to evolve naturally through new environments.
From city life to nature. From daily routines to small moments of exploration. This is Kodangs. Rooted in who we are. Open to where we’re going.
Welcome to the neighborhood.
About KODANGS’ Expansion to North America
What Is Hello, New Neighbor?
Hello, New Neighbor is KODANGS’ introduction to North America in 2026. It represents the brand’s next step into the United States, led by the KODANGS USA team and official distributor after years of research, listening, and on-the-ground experience.
This chapter focuses on community, everyday usability, and thoughtful design rather than fast growth or trend-driven expansion.
Why North America?
KODANGS was drawn to North America by a shared mindset.
A growing appreciation for intention.
A balance between structure and freedom.
A preference for quality over noise.
These values felt naturally aligned, especially in a time when many people are reconsidering how they live, wear, and move through the world.
Why the Pacific Northwest?
The Pacific Northwest reflects how KODANGS approaches everyday life. City and nature coexist. Work and outdoor moments flow together. Function meets expression.
From Seattle outward, the region mirrors the way KODANGS designs pieces that feel practical, adaptable, and expressive without trying too hard.
Is KODANGS Still a Thai Brand?
Yes. Always.
KODANGS remains rooted in Thai creativity and lived experience. Expanding into North America is not about replacing that identity, but allowing it to grow through new places, people, and cultures.
Who Is Behind KODANGS USA?
KODANGS USA is led by Thita & Tharm through their U.S.-based company, Sukhumvit53 LLC, bringing Kodangs to life in the United States.
This chapter is the result of long-term planning, relationship-building, and local collaboration. All launch visuals and video content were produced in the U.S., reflecting how KODANGS lives and moves in this new context.
For this session, we collaborated with Thai model and creator Nano, whose presence helped shape the natural rhythm and everyday feeling of this chapter.
What Does Kodangs Offer in the U.S.?
KODANGS creates high-quality lifestyle pieces designed for everyday movement.
Not performance wear.
Not trend-led fashion.
Just thoughtful items made to move with you through work, travel, city life, and nature, designed to adapt over time.
What’s Next?
A steady presence in North America.
Community-led storytelling.
Thoughtful product development.
Growth that’s slow, intentional, and rooted in care.
With Love
