Luxuriously Crafted with Leather from the "LFA" Supercar, Limited to 500 Units Worldwide


This collaboration was born from the shared commitment to craftsmanship between Lexus and Barneys New York. The collection features nine exquisite leather items, embodying the pinnacle of Japanese artisanal skill, alongside apparel designed for driving comfort. These pieces are released as a joint collection by Barneys New York and "Crafted for Lexus," Lexus's own brand.

The leather goods comprise four luxurious items, utilizing the leather seats from the "LFA" supercar, which was produced in a limited run of 500 units globally. The tote bag is an updated version of Pelle Morbida's best-selling model, a popular choice at Barneys New York. To achieve a soft texture, the original Lexus leather is embossed. The driving shoes are the result of a collaborative effort by footwear specialists, united under the slogan "Purely Japanese-made driving shoes to be proud of worldwide." Various artisans poured their skills into creating these exceptional shoes, passing them along like a baton. Additionally, the collection includes a sunglasses case and a shoehorn.

The apparel line offers five items perfect for driving, including a stretch jacket, driving pants, and sunglasses. Each piece is made with high-quality materials and designed with functionality in mind. This collection will be available at all Barneys New York stores and at INTERSECT BY LEXUS TOKYO in Minami-Aoyama.
