Summary

WIND AND SEA pairs with 'PaRappa the Rapper' for a 30th-anniversary capsule featuring new Rodney Greenblat artwork.

Includes rhinestone tees, "96" zip hoodies, kids' apparel, keyholders and woven lifestyle blankets.

Launches August 22, 2026, alongside a special pop-up at Shinsaibashi PARCO.

WIND AND SEA has reconnected with PaRappa the Rapper once more for a commemorative collection celebrating the rhythm game’s 30th anniversary. Highlighting original artwork newly created by character designer Rodney A. Greenblat, the collection translates the franchise’s playful 1990s visual aesthetic into WIND AND SEA’s signature street-ready silhouettes.

The lineup includes T-shirts featuring PaRappa’s artwork, rhinestone-detailed designs, pencil-style illustrations, and “96” motifs referencing the character’s 1996 debut. Zip-up hoodies, knit caps, obi-style belts, and necklaces expand the apparel range, while lifestyle items such as blankets, phone grips, magnets, and multi-trays bring PaRappa’s world into everyday use. Kids’ sizes are also available, allowing families to coordinate looks across generations.

Key accessories include PaRappa-branded knit caps, pillbox hats, obi-style belts, and silver or gold chain necklaces. The lifestyle lineup is further rounded out by character keyholders spotlighting Master Onion and PJ Berri, custom phone grips, air fresheners, multi-trays and co-branded woven blankets.

To mark the release, a dedicated 30th-anniversary pop-up event will run at Shinsaibashi PARCO from August 19 through September 1, 2026. The full collection officially launches globally on August 22, 2026, via the WIND AND SEA webstore and select retail outposts.
