After months of teasing, Takashi Murakami has now released his collaboration with READYMADE. Centered around the artist’s signature Kaikai Kiki Flower motif, the fashion and art team-up features a pair of shorts and cushion.

Available in three sizes, the vintage military fabric shorts are inspired by classic basketball shorts and riddled with multicolored flower patches arranged in a haphazard manner accompanied by Murakami’s embroidered signature. Each pair comes complete with an elasticated drawstring hem, two-tone band accents zippered rear pockets, READYMADE branding at the rear and dust bag. The 1-meter Kaikai Kiki Flower Cushion is constructed of a repurposed vintage military wool textile and defined by two facial expressions and appliqués attached to the side of the faces.

Priced at ¥500,000 and ¥150,000 JPY respectively (approximately $1,369 and $4,564 USD), the Takashi Murakami x READYMADE Kaikai Kiki Flower Shorts and Cushion available now at Tonari no Zingaro.
