Summary

HOMEGAME and New Era rework three MLB 59FIFTY fitteds with crowns cut from fabric that combines several traditional Japanese motifsEach team is assigned its own color story, with blue for the Dodgers, green for the Mariners and purple for the YankeesPattern placement shifts from cap to cap, so no two pieces in the pack look exactly alike

HOMEGAME and New Era have teamed up on the 59FIFTY "Kasane Pack," a three-piece MLB capsule built from patchwork-style fabric that pulls together a range of traditional Japanese patterns. The Japan-based cap specialist gave each team its own palette, matching the Los Angeles Dodgers, Seattle Mariners and New York Yankees with tonal prints and coordinating visors.

The starting point is the textile. Rather than printing a single graphic, the pack uses a fabric that assembles several classic Japanese motifs and botanical references into one surface. Three stand out: the geometric asanoha, or hemp leaf, grid; clusters of small, delicate flowers; and upright stalks of bamboo. HOMEGAME pitches the project as a modern reconstruction of these centuries-old designs, with attention paid from the choice of cloth through to how it's cut and set onto the six-panel crown.

Each colorway gets a name drawn from its dominant hue and motif. "AIKA" (藍花) dresses the Dodgers cap in blue-toned prints with a solid blue brim. "SUIMA" (翠麻) shifts the Mariners version into greens and finishes it with a Northwest Green visor. "SHICHIKU" (紫竹) gives the Yankees edition a purple-leaning crown set against a navy brim.

The trims hold steady across all three. Team logos (LA, S and NY) sit up front in raised 3D embroidery, while MLB's Batterman logo anchors the rear. Inside, a white sweatband lines the crown, and a gray undervisor runs beneath every brim, keeping the busy outer fabric grounded with a clean, classic base.

Because the patterned cloth is cut panel by panel, the motifs land differently on every cap. One Yankees fitted might put a bamboo stalk front and center while the next leads with hemp leaf geometry, which makes each piece effectively one of a kind. It's a fitting detail for a pairing between New Era, the 1920-founded headwear label that serves as MLB's sole official on-field cap supplier, and HOMEGAME, a shop known for stocking New Era styles unreleased in Japan alongside its own hip-hop-leaning "HOMEGAME CUSTOM" makeups.

The New Era x HOMEGAME 59FIFTY "Kasane Pack" drops October 10 at HOMEGAME stores and via the HOMEGAME online store.

Jil Sander and Oliver Peoples return with three new sunglasses for Collection 2.Titanium and sculpted acetate frames balance modernist precision with organic forms.Tonal and contrasting lens combinations expand the collaboration’s color language.

Jil Sander and Oliver Peoples are continuing their eyewear partnership with Collection 2, a three-style sunglasses range designed under Jil Sander Creative Director Simone Bellotti. Building on the collaboration’s exploration of precision and restraint, the new release plays with contrasts between modernist rigor and organic softness, translating them into rounded forms intended to follow the contours of the face.

Each pair is handmade in Japan and fitted with lenses crafted in Italy, while a broader approach to color introduces both tonal and higher-contrast frame-and-lens combinations. Edition 7 provides the collection’s architectural counterpoint in titanium, pairing a rounded eyewire with a sculptural top bar, shaped bridge, low-set endpieces and curved temples. Editions 9 and 10 shift into sculpted acetate: the former uses a thick, angular frame that unexpectedly widens toward the bottom, while the latter softens its geometry through a rounded, upswept silhouette and flowing curved temples.

Color play acts as a central defining element in Collection 2, offering combinations that range from soft, tone-on-tone harmonies to striking visual contrasts. The lineup delivers a rich palette across titanium and acetate variations: Edition 7 is offered in Gold and Silver frames paired with Light Brown Wash, G-15, Indigo, or Grey Gradient lenses; Edition 9 presents bold acetate in Black, Dark Mahogany, Taupe, and Buff; and Edition 10 comes in Black, Dark Mahogany, Bright Blue, and Amber with Carbon Grey or Indigo lenses. Serving as both a functional object and artistic gesture, the Jil Sander x Oliver Peoples Collection 2 is available through select Jil Sander boutiques, Oliver Peoples stockists, and online at JilSander.com.

Globe-Trotter celebrates 20 years of Casino Royale with a new 007 collection.Two limited Carry-Ons reference playing cards, poker and the film’s visual language.Attaché, leather and travel pieces extend the cinematic collection.

To mark the 20th anniversary of Casino Royale, Globe-Trotter has unveiled an exclusive 007 collection inspired by the sophisticated and high-stakes visual identity of Daniel Craig's debut James Bond film. Handcrafted in Hertfordshire, England, using Globe-Trotter’s iconic vulcanised fibreboard construction dating back to 1897, the line captures the film's signature motifs through subtle, architecturally refined design elements rather than loud graphics.

At the heart of the capsule are two 20-inch Carry-On cases - each strictly limited to 100 individually numbered pieces - featuring understated spade motifs embossed into strap guides, nickel hardware, and restrained red accents referencing the film’s color palette. Interior linings draw directly from Casino Royale's iconic opening title sequence and card suits, revealing a vibrant contrast when unzipped.

The cinematic references become more expressive inside, where graphics informed by Casino Royale’s opening title sequence and playing-card suits contrast with the cases’ understated exteriors. Recurring details including poker chips, the winning hand and Vesper references carry the film’s visual language throughout without overwhelming Globe-Trotter’s traditional craftsmanship.

Each case is handcrafted in Hertfordshire, England, using the brand’s distinctive vulcanised fibreboard construction and manufacturing methods rooted in its 1897 origins, bringing a distinctly 007 treatment to more than a century of British luggage-making. The Globe-Trotter 007 Casino Royale Collection is available now, with Globe-Trotter listing its collections through its official online store and boutiques in London, Paris and Kobe.

Kiko Kostadinov's Spring/Summer 2027 womenswear explores how garments can change with movement, using fabrics that let light pass through in varying degreesSignature pieces include cotton "Chronotope" dresses broken up by translucent nylon, seamless darted tunics in printed moiré and rectangular coats gathered at the backMade in Japan tailoring, reworked knitwear and new footwear on a custom Kiko Kostadinov sole round out the lineup

Kiko Kostadinov's Spring/Summer 2027 womenswear collection, designed by Laura and Deanna Fanning and presented in Paris, uses yarn, cut and transparency to make clothing that looks different with every step. The sisters took their starting point from Nanda Vigo, the artist associated with the ZERO group whose Cronotopo constructions of the 1960s combined glass, steel, aluminum and light to create spaces that seem to move. Their takeaway was practical as much as conceptual: garments that reshape themselves as the wearer walks, turns and gets closer to others.

The "Chronotope" dresses put that idea into fabric most directly. Each is spun from cotton yarn, which provides structure and an easy drape, then broken up with panels of translucent nylon that allow light to filter through. Rendered in tonal whites and blues, the dresses flicker between solid and see-through depending on the wearer's position, so the silhouette never settles into a single fixed read.

Construction tricks carry the same tension between control and looseness. Tunics take on triangular shapes using darts alone, with seams removed entirely so that printed moiré fabrics stay taut and uninterrupted across the body. At the lighter end, featherweight organza is draped into slip dresses and loose headpieces that react to air and motion. Outerwear starts from a simple rectangle, gathered at the back to produce broad shoulders and a pronounced swing that gives the coats an eveningwear sense of movement. Wool crepe and airy linen add further layers of sheerness throughout.

Tailoring offers a sharper counterpoint. Made in Japan suiting is cut with strong shoulders and darted waists, built with the practical demands of a working wardrobe in mind. Knitwear staples get a technical rethink, with cardigans, twin sets and polo dresses reworked through contrasting intarsia, pleating, lace-hole construction and alternating pattern repeats. Pleats recur across the collection to set up a steady rhythm, punctuated by flashes of color against otherwise quiet surfaces.

Footwear extends the vocabulary. Woven leather pumps sit alongside loafers finished with two-tone stitching and set on a custom Kiko Kostadinov sole, while geometric "Chronotopo" sandals bring Vigo's angular forms down to the ground. Beauty brand OMMAGE handled the makeup, a translucent, glowing finish that nods to the light the designers grew up with in Australia.

The show space completed the reference. Vigo's own designs furnished the venue, including her Due Più chairs from 1971, produced by Acerbis, alongside her Andromeda piece (1974/2022) and Light-Light (2000), made for Glas Italia. Placed among the clothes, the objects gave guests a direct comparison between Vigo's experiments with glass and light and the Fannings' translation of them into wearable form.

Summary

JiyongKim and KOLON SPORT reunite for a second collaborative collection that reworks the functional framework of outdoor gearLayered goose down and fleece build dimensional, sculpted shapes, while drawstrings, straps and detachable components let each piece change formGarment washing and reimagined technical details like seam sealing and pockets push function into the realm of design

JiyongKim and KOLON SPORT have teamed up on their second collaborative collection, a FW26 lineup that takes apart the construction of technical outdoor wear and rebuilds it through JiyongKim's pattern work and silhouettes. Drawing on Himalayan Sherpa traditions and the ways people dress for unpredictable mountain conditions, the range treats insulation, hardware and finishing as tools for shaping garments as much as protecting the wearer.

Materials set the foundation. Goose down and fleece, two of outdoor wear's most familiar insulators, are stacked and assembled in layers to give the garments real dimension. Rather than producing a flat, uniform puff, the construction creates pronounced volume and a sculpted, almost architectural profile, with JiyongKim's patternmaking dictating how the fill and pile sit on the body.

Adjustability is built into the structure. Drawstrings, straps and detachable components appear throughout, allowing the wearer to cinch, release or remove elements so that a single piece can take on different shapes. The idea mirrors the collection's mountain inspiration, where clothing has to respond to shifting weather and terrain, and here the silhouette changes depending on how each garment is worn and where.

Finishing adds another layer of character. The collection is garment washed, a process that brings out the natural texture of each fabric and introduces subtle variation across the surface, so no two pieces read exactly the same. Technical features that usually stay in the background are also pulled forward. Seam sealing and pockets, typically there purely for weatherproofing and utility, are reworked into deliberate visual elements that contribute to each garment's form.

The approach reflects where the two labels meet. KOLON SPORT brings its background in functional outdoor apparel developed around a respect for the natural world, while JiyongKim builds its clothing around quieter natural phenomena such as sunlight, wind, warmth and the passage of time. The result is a collection where the practical logic of outdoor gear and a sculptural design sensibility share equal footing.

The KOLON SPORT x JiyongKim FW26 collection launches October 8.

Producer and trackmaker STUTS is teaming up with United Athle, a heritage apparel brand with over 90 years of history. The duo is dropping two exclusive sweatshirt styles on Saturday, October 17, at Finetime Coffee Roasters in Kyodo, Tokyo.

For this drop, artist Ryu Okubo created custom graphics inspired by STUTS’s 10th-anniversary show, "Alone with," set for fall 2026. The artwork is featured on United Athle’s 8.8-ounce Authentic Pile Crew Neck Sweatshirt (French terry), which comes in two versatile shades: black and greige.

STUTS is no stranger to United Athle, having used their blanks for his past merch, making this official collaboration a natural progression for his upcoming special performance. Okubo's illustrations perfectly complement the sweatshirt's relaxed silhouette and ideal fabric weight.

On the day of the release, the café will also offer a limited-edition set pairing the collaboration sweatshirt with STUTS's signature coffee blend. The sweatshirts retail for 4,000 yen (tax included) and are available in M, L, and XL for both colorways.

Diptyque partners with artist Jean-Simon Roch for "The Enchanted Forest," a collection centered on wood.The seasonal pine tree scent returns across green glass candles, tapers and room sprays.Features a toolbox-inspired Advent Calendar, wooden top and dark-wood oval labels.

Diptyque steps into an "Enchanted Forest" for its 2026 Holiday Collection, imagining a winter world where carved creatures stir to life beneath a star-filled night sky. Created in collaboration with French designer and craftsman Jean-Simon Roch, the collection transforms wood into an animated, kinetic ballet of forest fauna and flora under a starry winter sky.

At the center of that olfactory forest is "Sapin," Diptyque’s returning seasonal Pine Tree fragrance. Siberian fir and balsam fir give the scent the cool green snap of freshly cut branches, while cedarwood adds the dry warmth of bark and timber and moss settles underneath like a damp forest floor. Together, the notes conjure the moment a tree is first carried indoors: resin clinging to the hands, cold outdoor air still caught between its needles, then gradually warming beside candlelight.

That scent story expands into Classic, Small and Very Large candles, an "Advent" taper shaped like a pine tree, a scented oval, miniature room spray and even Jean-Simon Roch’s hand-turned perfumed wooden spinning top, which releases Sapin as it moves. Elsewhere, "Feu de Bois" evokes a crackling hearth through a sculptural 2.5kg wax tree stump, while scented wax rabbits, owls and acorns bring traces of "Santal," "Baies" and "Ambre" into the collection’s miniature woodland cast.

The packaging carries the same story into physical form. "Sapin" candles arrive in deep green lacquered glass scattered with gold stars and introduce a wooden interpretation of Diptyque’s signature oval label, while the Very Large edition moves into hand-enamelled ceramic with individually painted stars. The house’s "Orphéon," "Do Son" and "Eau Rose" 75ml eaux de parfum are similarly recast for the season with glittering gold lettering over black wooden oval labels, joined by larger 200ml editions of "Do Son," "Fleur de Peau" and "Orphéon."

Even the Advent Calendar is conceived like a wood-turner’s toolbox, opening onto 25 fragrances, candles, body-care pieces and home objects as though revealing drawers in an artisan’s workshop. The collection rolls out through Diptyque’s boutiques, counters and online store this holiday season, with festive in-store programming beginning October 20, 2026.

Summary

Matthieu Blazy presented the Chanel Spring/Summer 2027 collection exploring the evolving identities of founder Gabrielle ChanelThe runway highlighted themes of liberation backed by a soundtrack shifting from You Don't Own Me to a remix of Gimme MoreThe energetic musical transition brought a star-studded front row including Nicole Kidman Pedro Pascal and Dua Lipa to their feet

Chanel and Matthieu Blazy have presented the Spring/Summer 2027 collection, titled La Conversation – Part Three – Different Faces of the Same Coin. The collection examines the multi-layered history and style trajectory of founder Gabrielle Chanel, centering on the overarching theme of freedom. As guests enter the Grand Palais, they were greeted with a flock of bird-like lanterns resembling a cascade of birds in migration. The vibrantly painted floors reflected the birds aflight, just like how it would look if they flew over a the shimmering surface of a riverbed.

The collection charts a course from the strictures of Edwardian corsetry to revolutionary, unconstrained suiting, leaving historical details behind as subtle remnants through lines of shadow boning, peplum flourishes, ruffled collars, and curved bodices. Blazy deconstructs masculine formal wear into raw-edged gilets, tailored trousers, and pencil-skirt suits, while 1930s-style evening gowns arrive bias-cut, sequined, or beaded with the weightless ease of a T-shirt. Lightweight flou mimics the time-lapse of cloud formations through layered silk transparencies, shifting from morning tones to nightfall.

Technical innovation anchors the collection’s final chapter with the debut of "smocked tweed." Engineered as a stretch performance garment, the material adapts to the body like a second skin, delivering weightless mobility while maintaining traditional suiting aesthetics. Avian motifs—specifically swifts and swallows—appear across embroidery, hardware, and jewelry to embody freedom. Accessories cycle through time, anchored by model Dyanira Hurbuscher carrying Gabrielle’s archival 2.55 bag alongside new watch-chain flap bags, cloud-printed leather goods, and a birdcage minaudiere.

The prevailing theme of liberation extended directly into the show's atmosphere. Transitioning from Lesley Gore's "You Don't Own Me" into an energetic remix of Britney Spears' "Gimme More," the soundtrack prompted the entire front row—including Nicole Kidman, Ayo Edebiri, Pedro Pascal, Kristen Wiig, Dua Lipa, and Alexa Demie—to break into dance.

MarcyPen Capital Partners, the investment firm co-founded by JAY-Z, is reportedly nearing a deal to buy LVMH's 50 percent stake in Fenty BeautyA source close to the transaction indicated it could be signed within three to four weeks, though financial terms have not been disclosedThe firm already has a track record with Rihanna's businesses, having backed Savage X Fenty in earlier funding rounds

Rihanna's Fenty Beauty may soon have a new co-owner. MarcyPen Capital Partners, the investment firm co-founded by JAY-Z, is reportedly close to acquiring LVMH's 50 percent stake in the cosmetics brand, Puck first reported. A source close to the deal told the outlet the agreement could be signed in the next three to four weeks, bringing to a close a sale process LVMH set in motion nearly a year ago.

LVMH has held half of Fenty Beauty since the brand's launch, with Rihanna owning the other half. Should MarcyPen take over the luxury group's shares, the singer and the firm would split ownership evenly. Financial terms remain under wraps, and neither MarcyPen nor Roc Nation executive Jay Brown responded to Puck's request for comment.

Valuation is the open question. XXL reports that Fenty Beauty was once valued at more than $2 billion USD, while more recent estimates have put the figure nearer to $1 billion USD. Neither number has been confirmed in connection with this transaction, and any final price will depend on terms that have yet to surface.

MarcyPen came together in 2024 when JAY-Z's Marcy Venture Partners merged with Pendulum Opportunities, the investment vehicle run by D'Rita and Robbie Robinson. Its links to Rihanna predate the merger. Marcy Venture Partners took part in funding rounds for Savage X Fenty, Rihanna's lingerie label, in both 2019 and 2022.

Jay Brown further tightens those ties. In addition to his role at Roc Nation, Brown is a MarcyPen co-founder and is credited by XXL as a co-founder of both Fenty Beauty and Savage X Fenty, placing him on both sides of the table as the deal takes shape.

Fenty Beauty first arrived in 2017 through Kendo Brands, LVMH's beauty incubator. Its debut range of 40 foundation shades turned the brand into one of the most successful celebrity-backed beauty launches and made shade inclusivity a baseline expectation across the industry. A move away from LVMH would mark the first major change to the brand's ownership structure since then.

If the reported timeline holds, MarcyPen and Rihanna could formalize their 50-50 partnership in Fenty Beauty by late October 2026.

Summary

sacai’s SS27 “Moment of Becoming” collection explores human complexity and personal evolution through deconstructed design fractures.Structural linings are reimagined as primary silhouettes, exposing internal architecture alongside fluid, movement-reactive textiles.Sheer organza layers, exposed-mesh trench coats, and deconstructed bombers showcase a delicate balance between conviction and vulnerability.

Titled "Moment of Becoming," Chitose Abe’s Spring/Summer 2027 runway collection for sacai at Paris Fashion Week delivered a poetic meditation on human evolution, authentic self-expression and quiet resolve.

Abe frames the collection around human complexity, quiet resolve and personal evolution, with garments conceived as surfaces that can never fully contain the person beneath them. Instead of treating irregularity as something to disguise, SS27 gives those disruptions a central role, allowing openings, shifts in structure and exposed construction to become expressions of character rather than imperfection.

The season’s most distinctive design gesture lies in the way structural linings are pulled forward to become the silhouette itself. Elements that would normally remain hidden inside a garment are elevated into defining visual features, reversing the usual hierarchy between exterior and interior.

Highlighted styles include deconstructed trench coats and bomber jackets transformed with exposed mesh, sheer paneling and visible structural seams. Flowing sheer dresses and tailored trousers featuring intentional fractures and exposed linings exemplify the collection's core philosophy — capturing an unfiltered reality where vulnerability becomes an unyielding form of true strength.

Summary

Better World Fragrance House, Drake's fragrance label, has adapted its Summer Mink scent into a 10.5 oz home candleEach candle includes a gold marker so owners can write a name or personal note directly on the vesselThe scent's concept plays on contradiction, pairing the luxury of fur with the heat of summer to blur seasonal and gender norms

Better World Fragrance House has released the Summer Mink Scented Candle, bringing Drake's signature fragrance off the skin and into the home. The 10.5 oz candle carries over the same amber-woody profile as the original scent, adding a gold marker that lets owners personalize the vessel by hand.

Summer Mink is built around an idea that shouldn't work on paper. The brand frames the scent as the feeling of draping yourself in mink during the warmest months of the year, a deliberately out-of-season move that ignores who a fragrance is supposed to be for and when it's supposed to be worn. That sense of contrast shapes the composition from top to bottom.

The opening is bright and herbal, led by Italian citrus, clary sage and petitgrain, the latter drawn from the leaves and twigs of the bitter orange tree. As the candle warms, the heart turns floral and warm at once, with jasmine sambac and rose oil layered over a blend of spices. The dry-down settles into vetiver, musk and Ambrofix, a sustainably produced amber molecule that gives the base its smooth, mineral warmth. Together, the three tiers land the scent firmly in the amber-woody family.

The formula is free of parabens and phthalates, and the vessel doubles as a blank canvas. Rather than a printed label, each candle ships alongside a gold marker designed for adding a custom name or handwritten message, turning the piece into a ready-made gift or a personal signature on a shelf.

Care instructions favor a slow, even burn. The first lighting should run three to four hours so the wax melts edge to edge and avoids tunneling, with the wick trimmed to a quarter inch before each relight and sessions capped at four hours.

Home scent has become a natural extension for Drake's label, which has offered candles alongside its personal fragrances, including the Carby Musk scent he once described as smelling like himself. Summer Mink now joins that lineup as one of the house's more conceptual offerings.

The Better World Fragrance House Summer Mink Scented Candle is available now exclusively online via Ulta Beauty.

Brooks Brothers and Champion unite for their first collaboration, exclusive to Japan.Made in USA Reverse Weave® sweats merge collegiate sportswear with American trad.An archival-inspired six-button Oxford shirt rounds out the collection.

Brooks Brothers and Champion are bringing together two pillars of American style for their first collaboration, a Japan-exclusive collection that bridges preppy tradition with collegiate sportswear. Founded in New York in 1818 and Rochester in 1919, respectively, the brands draw on their shared American heritage through Champion’s signature Made in USA Reverse Weave® construction.

The men’s lineup comprises crewneck sweatshirts, hoodies and sweatpants made from heavyweight 12.5-ounce USA cotton-blend fleece, alongside a Brooks Brothers button-down shirt. The sweats feature arched “Brooks Brothers” graphics reminiscent of vintage collegiate apparel and externally placed dual-brand labels at the back of the collar, with the men’s styles offered across classic navy, gray, green, brown, white and black tones.

The collaboration also digs deeper into Brooks Brothers’ archive with a white button-down modeled after a six-button style sold in the U.S. during the 1980s. Crafted from 100% American Supima cotton Oxford cloth, the shirt faithfully recreates details including the original yoke proportions, front cut, cuffs, placket and “Makers” woven label, while co-branded embroidery brings Champion into the otherwise traditional design.

For women, Made in USA Reverse Weave® crewnecks and hoodies use the same heavyweight foundation but soften the collegiate treatment with felt Brooks Brothers lettering, arriving in navy, gray and white. Prices range from ¥28,600 JPY (approx. $181 USD) for the button-down to ¥44,000 JPY (approx. $278 USD)for the women’s hoodie, with the Brooks Brothers x Champion collection available now exclusively in Japan through Brooks Brothers stores, excluding outlets and the brand’s official Japanese online store.

Summary

Stefano Gallici’s "LONESOME HEAVEN" draws from California desert drives, stoner rock, and Howard Hughes' aviation hangar.A reduced palette features natural whites, rust-stained satin, faded blacks, and sun-bleached Blue Dust.The range contrasts destroyed tuxedos and scar-stitched denim with inside-out tailoring exposing loose linings.

Ann Demeulemeester’s Spring/Summer 2027 collection begins somewhere between an empty desert highway and a guitar amplifier pushed to breaking point. Titled “Lonesome Heaven,” Stefano Gallici’s seventh collection for the house draws its atmosphere from a drive through the California desert, where vast stretches of open land, dust and silence collided with the heavy stoner rock of Kyuss’ Welcome to Sky Valley. That contradiction - emptiness charged with intensity - runs through the clothes. Rather than interpreting the American West literally, Gallici filters it through the house’s familiar darkness, arriving at something closer to a faded, romantic vision of California: sun-bleached, lonely and slightly haunted.

The wardrobe follows the same stripped-back logic. White, black and a workwear-derived Blue Dust dominate, but each is allowed to erode into softer variations: ivory, chalk and ecru sit alongside rust-stained satin; dense black shifts into faded charcoal before turning glossy in sharp silk; blue washes toward sun-faded tones and heavily worked denim. Tailoring often appears as though it has survived years of wear, turned inside out so linings fall loose and construction becomes part of the surface. Striped cottons recall old mechanic uniforms, while workwear trousers and jackets are distressed rather than preserved. Destroyed and scar-stitched denim brings a rougher register into the mix, making wear and imperfection feel integral rather than decorative additions.

From there, “Lonesome Heaven” moves freely between periods and archetypes. Gallici describes the collection as though a younger version of himself had discovered an old wardrobe in an attic, pulling pieces apart and reconnecting them without concern for their original context. Aviation became one of those unexpected threads after a visit to Howard Hughes’ former Los Angeles hangar, feeding flight-related codes into the season’s already weathered language. One of the most evocative pieces is a tuxedo imagined in a state of near-collapse — formal ceremony stripped of its pristine associations and instead “worn to death, or to eternity.” That image crystallizes much of SS27: tailoring remains elegant, but its beauty lies in what has faded, loosened or begun to fall apart.

Summary

WIND AND SEA and Snow Peak reunite for Fall/Winter 2026-27 with a tight capsule centered on down and synthetic insulationEach piece is built around a named performance textile, from a 20D PERTEX SHIELD shell to PrimaLoft Silver fill and a Polartec Alpha Direct liningOutdoor-grade materials sit inside clean, minimal silhouettes meant to move between the trail and everyday city wear

WIND AND SEA and Snow Peak have returned with their Fall/Winter 2026-27 collection, a four-piece capsule that puts technical insulation at the center of the partnership. The lineup pairs the field-ready function of Snow Peak Apparel with WIND AND SEA's urban styling, translating lightweight warmth and comfort-focused construction into pieces designed for daily wear.

The PERTEX Light Weight Down Jacket anchors the drop. Its outer layer is cut from 20D PERTEX SHIELD, a featherlight face fabric built to block wind and keep out water, while the inside is filled with 800-fill-power washable down. The result is a puffer that stays light on the body without giving up warmth, offered in black or blue.

The Flexible Insulated Cardigan swaps down for synthetic fill, upgraded this season to PrimaLoft Silver. The insulation keeps weight low while holding in heat, giving the cardigan silhouette enough warmth to work as a mid-layer or a standalone piece in milder weather. It also arrives in black or blue.

For movement, the Breathable Insulated series covers both a jacket and matching pants. Both are lined with Polartec Alpha Direct, an open-knit insulation that traps warmth while letting excess heat escape, and the build adds four-way stretch for unrestricted range of motion. The jacket and pants are available in black or gray, making it easy to wear them as a coordinated set.

Across all four items, the technical details stay understated. The construction relies on performance materials, but the finished shapes are kept simple, so nothing reads as overtly mountain gear on a city street. It's a formula the two brands have refined across several previous collaborations, and here it sharpens into a focused capsule built around fabric choices rather than graphics.

The WIND AND SEA x Snow Peak Fall/Winter 2026-27 collection will be offered through an online raffle on WIND AND SEA's official web store, running from October 10 at 12 p.m. through October 18 at 11:59 p.m. The pieces will also be sold at WIND AND SEA TOKYO, WIND AND SEA OSAKA (HORIE) and WIND AND SEA HANKYU UMEDA.

Beans, the company behind a diverse array of select shops and brand stores, is opening GEED, a specialty store dedicated entirely to GORE-TEX® products and WINDSTOPPER® products by GORE-TEX LABS®, in Sapporo, Hokkaido, on Saturday, October 10.

The name "GEED" combines "℃" (degrees)—symbolizing the comfortable body temperature maintained by the waterproof, breathable, and windproof properties of GORE-TEX® products—with the letter "G," representing both "GORE-TEX" and a deep respect for the protective performance of its garments and gear.

Sapporo was chosen as the location for its seamless blend of city and nature. The store aims to share the value of GORE-TEX® products against the backdrop of a metropolis of nearly two million people where diverse cultures and trends intersect, while also serving an area where outdoor activities like skiing, snowboarding, trekking, camping, and cycling are deeply rooted.

The store curates a selection of highly functional and beautifully designed items from both outdoor and fashion brands. Inside, the space features granite fixtures and earthen walls, blending rugged textures with natural materials.

Additionally, the store features an Experience Room where visitors can explore the history and technology of GORE-TEX® products. A rain booth simulates actual rainfall, allowing customers to experience the products' waterproof and breathable performance firsthand, while an on-site laundry facility demonstrates proper wash and care methods for the garments.

A timeline chronicling the 50-year history of GORE-TEX® products also spans the walls. The experiential space is designed to bridge the gap between the technology's origins, modern urban life, and the great outdoors.

GEED
Address: Otemachi Building 1F, 4-5 Minami 1-jo Nishi, Chuo-ku, Sapporo, Hokkaido
Hours: 11:00 AM – 8:00 PM
