How to say "bespoke" in Japanese
Choosing the right word
- 特注とくちゅうsuru verb, transitive verb, no-adjectiveCovers the 'custom-made, special-order' sense of bespoke: goods produced specially to a customer's specifications. Typical when commissioning furniture, parts, or other made-to-order merchandise rather than discussing clothing.
- no-adjectiveAlso means bespoke or custom-made, with a strong association with made-to-order clothing tailored to the individual. A natural loanword choice when stressing that something is tailored personally rather than simply specially ordered.
Use 特注 for goods made specially to order, especially non-clothing items, and 「オーダーメイド」 when emphasizing made-to-order production, particularly of clothing, to the customer's measurements or specifications.
