After working with Futura on a series of screenprints, Takashi Murakami has now reunited with PORTER for a new collection of bags. The collaboration marks the beginning of PORTER’s 85th anniversary celebrations, with a string of new releases and collaborations lined up between now and February 2021.

The collection consists of five classic PORTER bags and one cushion, all of which are designed with a glossy navy finish and adorned with Murakami’s signature flower motif. The bag styles range from the larger Doctor’s Bag, Tool Bag and Helmet Bag to smaller styles such as the Vertical Shoulder Bag and the Fanny Pack.

All of the pieces feature removable flower motifs and Murakami embroidery, with motifs from his work appearing on sections of the exterior and printed onto PORTER’s recognizable orange lining. Finishing each bag is a PORTER patch alongside a Tonari no Zingaro badge.

All of the Takashi Murakami x PORTER bags are available now from the PORTER web store, and keep an eye out for more special releases from the Japanese label to mark its 85th anniversary.
