*''Japanese'': [[後藤]]縫殿助 ''(Gotou Nuinosuke)''

Gotô Nuinosuke was a lineage of ''[[goyo shonin|goyô shônin]]'' (official merchants) employed by the [[Tokugawa shogunate]] to produce formal clothes.

The first Gotô Nuinosuke, granted that name in [[1627]] by [[Tokugawa Iemitsu]], was a grandson of Matsubayashi (or Shôrin), an official purveyor to [[Tokugawa Ieyasu]]. Matsubayashi was succeeded by his son Tadamasa as official purveyor, and Tadamasa and his three sons Tadanao, Masukatsu, and Yoshikatsu were granted [[samurai]] status. They served as retainers to Ieyasu, [[Tokugawa Hidetada|Hidetada]], and Iemitsu, and Masukatsu became the first Nuinosuke in 1627 passing that name on to his descendants, down through the rest of the [[Edo period]].

When ''daimyô'' presented clothing as formal gifts to the shogun on [[Tango no sekku]] and [[Chrysanthemum Festival]], and at the end of the year, they often had the clothes special-made by Gotô; similarly, Gotô provided much of the clothing bestowed upon the ''daimyô'' by the shogun in return.<ref>Ono Kiyoshi 小野清, Takayanagi Kaneyoshi 高柳金芳, ''Shiryô Tokugawa bakufu no seido'' 史料徳川幕府の制度, Jinbutsu ôraisha (1968), 261.</ref>
