ENGINEERED GARMENTS and Midorikawa Release First Collaborative Collection
A five-piece lineup fusing the unique characteristics of both brands
The first collaboration between ENGINEERED GARMENTS and Midorikawa, the brand by designer Taku Midorikawa, has arrived.
For this collaboration, the brands have created reversible jackets and pants based on ENGINEERED GARMENTS’ classic BEDFORD JACKET and OFFICER PANT, infused with Midorikawa’s signature delicate details. The lineup also features an all-in-one OPERA SUIT.
The garments are made using ENGINEERED GARMENTS’ standard uniform serge, a highly durable material that has also been used in NYPD uniforms. The fabric incorporates a stamp formerly used to indicate delivery to the police academy, and the jackets and pants are designed to offer a different look on either side.
Additionally, the collection includes a 19 CENTURY BD SHIRT and a CAGOULE SHIRT crafted from a floral cotton broadcloth proposed by Midorikawa. These pieces feature a special textile combining both brands’ logos within an original floral pattern inspired by home furnishing fabrics used for American sofas and bedding.
The collection consists of five items in total: the 19 Century BD Shirt for 74,800 yen, the Cagoule Shirt for 85,800 yen, the Reversible Bedford Jacket for 187,000 yen, the Reversible Officer Pant for 99,000 yen, and the Opera Suit for 220,000 yen. Sales will begin on Friday, November 13 at 11:30 a.m. at ENGINEERED GARMENTS TOKYO. (*All prices in the text include tax.)
