Supreme® has once again collaborated with Yohji Yamamoto on an incredible new collection! Items will go on sale on September 24 at 11:00 AM (JST) on the online platform WILDSIDE YOHJI YAMAMOTO and the Supreme site. 

The 2022-23 AW collection includes leather jackets and pants made by Vanson Leathers, one of the largest motorcycle leather manufacturers in the U.S. Fashion lovers can also find bomber jackets, parkas, suits, sweaters, shirts, hoodies, cargo pants, T-shirts, beanies, Dr. Martens 1461 3-Eye shoes, and skateboards.

Video game fans also won’t want to miss the collection’s puffy jackets, knit tops, hoodies, T-shirts, and skateboards featuring original artwork from the classic fighting title Tekken!

Yohji Yamamoto’s brand Ground Y has announced a collaboration with contemporary artist Yasuto Sasada. The collection will launch on May 27 at Ground Y stores and the official Yohji Yamamoto online shop. Yamamoto’s Ground Y aims to create new fashion possibilities in a ‘genderless’ and ‘ageless’ style that can be worn by anyone. All the more reason to check out the offerings!

The collection fuses art and fashion, incorporating various motifs drawn by Yasuto Sasada using charcoal, watercolor, and pastel paints. The artist’s original worldview is a large part of his appeal, and the masterful way he blends his colorful imagination and technical skills gives off an incredible energy that no one else can imitate. As with other Ground Y collaborations, each piece gives off a ‘Made in Japan’ vibe.

Be sure to check out the visuals for the collection featuring rising star Homomi Nasu and Kai Ogasawara, a member of the dance-vocal group Bullet Train. 

In January, it was announced that Yohji Yamamoto’s brand Ground Y would release a Demon Slayer-inspired collection. From February 10 until February 20, these items will be available at participating Ground Y stores nationwide as well as on THE SHOP YOHJI YAMAMOTO online store.

Original Bandana for Early Orders (while supplies last)

The collection is made exclusively from traditional Japanese fabrics, including silk from Ogura Fabrics, established in 1895. Fans can pick up cloaks and long coats featuring popular characters from the series including Tanjiro Kamado, Nezuko Kamado, and Kyojuro Rengoku. These illustrations were provided by ufotable exclusively for this collaboration.

A number of shirts will also be available, so be sure to grab your favorites before they’re gone!

The newest Yohji Yamamoto Ground Y collection was released on January 21, 2022. The spring/summer items made their first appearance in a key visual featuring actors Mai Fukagawa and Mahiro Takasugi.

The concept for the new collection is ‘Beyond Boundaries.’ By reconstructing existing borders to create a hectic visual cacophony, Yamamoto has also been deeply inspired by the stories of Japan’s literary giants such as Natsume Souseki and Dazai Osamu. 

The models seen in the key visual are Mai Fukagawa and Mahiro Takasugi, both of whom are active in popular dramas and films. Commentary from both actors can be seen on the official Ground Y YouTube channel, so be sure to give it a watch!

The visuals for this collection were shot under the direction of photographer Masatoshi Yamashiro and stylist Takashi Mizuguchi at the Jiyu Gakuen Girls’ School, which was designed by American master Frank Lloyd Wright in 1921 and has been designated as an important cultural property.

Yohji Yamamoto’s brand Ground Y has announced a collaboration with the globally popular series Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba.

The new collection highlights the essence of Japanese craftsmanship, and each piece is made in Japan with Japanese fabrics.

Set in the small town of Hawkins in the 1980s, Stranger Things is a spectacular adventure that follows the mysterious disappearance of a young boy named Will and the sudden appearance of a mysterious girl named Eleven. The combination of the dramatic development with respect to the classic movies of the 80’s, the tense thriller depiction, and the exciting friendship and adventure of the children, and the original graphics with the dark elements that S’YTE is known for, resonate to create a unique collection of items.

The film focuses on the Upside Down (the other side of the world), where horrible experiments and monsters are being conducted at the national laboratory, which is an important factor in the story of “Stranger Things. The dark side, which seems like a fantasy but certainly exists, is expressed in S’YTE’s unique interpretation through the use of motifs such as decaying plants and trees.

Don’t miss the special collection available only here.

Yohji Yamamoto teamed up with Dr. Martens to release the ‘TARIAN BOOTS’ Autumn/Winter 21-22 collection on July 14.

The boots are a restyling of Dr. Martens’ iconic 8-EYE BOOT. The uppers feature triangular eyelets and are made from smooth and soft leather. The shafts are embossed with Yohji Yamamoto’s signature logo, and the all-new lightweight and durable TARIAN outer soles are used. These boots are the first to use these new soles, so don’t miss out.

An exhibition centred on the Devilman manga series by Go Nagai, the 1972 Devilman anime adaptation, and Netflix’s 2018 DEVILMAN crybaby anime adaptation, is set to take place on the online exhibition platform Virtual Utopia from April 28 to May 31.

A devilish experience split into 11 areas

Devilman has been entertaining readers and anime-lovers for almost half a decade. The exhibition will depict the comparisons between humans and demons of the series in 11 different areas, each recreating scenes that are sure to be instantly-recognisable to fans.

Main Area: Heart of a Demon / Heart of a Human

The main portion of the exhibition is split into four areas which fans will find themselves going back to numerous times, and in different orders, giving each visitor their own unique perspectives and interpretations. There’s also a hidden area which can only be accessed by those who have seen the ‘special exhibit.’ There’s also a free-to-enter area with messages from the creators.

Go deeper into the VR Devilman Exhibition with the voice guide
Forget your usual guides, this exhibition incorporates voiceover guides to walk people through the exhibition. For an extra fee, fans can have Megumi Han, who plays Miki Makimura in DEVILMAN crybaby, and Tomokazu Seki, who for this exhibition is playing Psycho Jenny, guide them through the different areas.

Users can download the Virtual Utopia app for free, and the exhibition can be attended even without a VR headset. There will also be talks by the author and other notable people in the industry which can be watched live on YouTube, so anyone can get involved.

Ground Y T-Shirt Collaboration

The exhibition is also collaborating with Yohji Yamamoto’s fashion brand Ground Y on six original tees.

Yohji Yamamoto’s brand “genderless and ageless” fashion brand Ground Y is releasing a new clothing collection in collaboration with New Era at Ground Y stores, THE SHOP YOHJI YAMAMOTO, and select dealers on March 22.

The Line-Up

9THIRTY™ | ¥8,800 (Tax Included)

Logo Cotton Tee | ¥12,100 (Tax Included)

Logo Cotton Hoodie | ¥17,600 (Tax Included)

The line-up takes New Era’s “9THIRTY™” Spring/Summer 2021 collection and adds Ground Y’s logo in a metal plate. The plate is simple yet double almost as an accessory in its stylish look.

To celebrate the 85th anniversary of Japanese bag and accessory manufacturer Yoshida & Company, Yohji Yamamoto and PORTER collaborated to release a special bag collection on Friday (March 5) in limited quantities.

2WAY HELMET BAG (Large) – ¥98,000 (Bef0re Tax) / 2WAY HELMET BAG (Small) – ¥72,000 (Before Tax) / 2WAY SHORT HELMET BAG  ¥83,000 (Before Tax) / 2WAY VANITY POUCH ¥69,000 (Before Tax)

The line-up features stylish bags equipped with unique fasteners that cater both function and design. The bags have a ‘thick’ and ‘heavy’ look to them, something that’s distinctively Yohji Yamamoto.

Black is used as the main colour, one that is symbolic of both brands. A deep matte texture is fitted in three layers, while the handles are also a matte black made from steer hide. The removable chain fasteners are a handy addition to let you freely choose their length. Plus, they look super flashy.

Each of the three bags have a removable inside pocket which can be used by itself as a pouch. They are all embroidered with Yohji Yamamoto’s signature logo and branded with PORTER’s brand tag.

Yasuto Sasada is a Japanese artist equipped with a collection of super thin 0.3 coloured ball-point pens who creates imaginative and breathtaking pieces that combine elements of ancient beliefs and mythology. He is set to collaborate with Ground Y from January 11.

On their website, Ground Y describes themselves as proposing a new fashion concept – formed of both a genderless and ageless style – through synchronizing different aspects of Yohji Yamamoto. This is the brand’s fourth collaboration, on from their geisha series in 2014, girl series in 2015 and camouflage series in 2016.

The new theme Mikkyō or “esoteric Buddhism” was created by Yasuto Sasada who took inspiration from saṃsāra―the six realms of existence―and the bird deity Garuda. Filipino-Japanese actress Elaiza Ikeda and Japanese actor and model Sho Kiyohara feature in the collection’s promotional visuals. A promotional video was also posted across Ground Y’s official social media pages.

This collection is also available as part of the toy line BE@RBRICK in limited quantities. An exhibition entitled Y will also take place in Ginza with products based around the letter “Y” including the one in Yasuto Sasada’s name as well as Ground Y.

New items have arrived in Yohji Yamamoto and New Era’s® collaborative series and are available from April 18.
