The UNDERCOVER x HUMAN MADE Collaboration "Last Orgy 2" Gets an Official Release Date
The five-piece apparel collection drops online on February 5.
UNDERCOVER, led by designer Jun Takahashi, and NIGO‘s HUMAN MADE have announced the release date for the new Last Orgy 2 apparel collection.
Tomoaki Nagao, who designs under the moniker NIGO, met Takahashi during his studies at Bunka Fashion College. The two worked together on a serial column entitled “Last Orgy 2,” printed in the pop-culture magazine, Takarajima. The column ran between 1992 and 1994 and coincided with the opening of NOWHERE, a streetwear haven based in Harajuku, Tokyo, launched by NIGO and Takahashi on April 1, 1993.
The store was the first retailer to carry UNDERCOVER, with NIGO embarking on his widely-popularized streetwear line, BAPE. The latest iteration of Last Orgy 2 commemorates the revived “Last Orgy 2.1” column reissued in GQ Japan in 2021. The designers join forces on a cold-weather apparel collection, featuring minimalist crewnecks, hoodies (approximately $289 USD), sweatshirts ($240 USD), T-shirts ($85 USD) and coach jackets ($222 USD).

The collection offers a variety of neutral colorways in olive green, burgundy, black, grey and white. A stylized ape mascot rests on the front panels of select crewnecks and hoodies, accompanied by a “Last Orgy Two” logo. The updated heart icon seen on the back panel of the T-shirt was created by visual artist VERDY and reads “Girls Don’t Cry.” The standout coach jacket sees snap buttons down the front with adjustable drawstrings at the hem.
Shop the collection online on February 5 on HUMAN MADE and UNDERCOVER’s home websites.
