roarguns broke through in 2004 with its iconic cross-gun motif. While excelling in robust, masculine designs and unique processing techniques, the brand has recently strengthened its graphic elements, continuing to evolve with an unwavering commitment to originality.
Meanwhile, F.C.Real Bristol began in 1999, centered around the keyword BRISTOL and inspired by a fictional football team.
Despite their entirely different origins and backgrounds, these two powerhouses, indispensable to Tokyo's fashion scene in the 00s, have joined forces for this 20th anniversary.
Six items have been released under the concept of roarguns customizing F.C.Real Bristol's official apparel as a fictional private supporter team. Look for the daring graphic of layering brand logos upon brand logos, and the luxurious details featuring crystal embellishments on smooth, comfortable black fabric.
In Japan, they will be available from Friday, March 18th at GALLERY roarguns in Omotesando Hills and on the official e-commerce site.
Based on F.C.Real Bristol's signature track jacket with side stripes, this piece features a large cross-gun graphic on the back and a star-shaped crystal on the left chest. It's the perfect item to embody adult luxury sports. ¥46,000
Track pants designed to be worn as a set with the track jacket introduced earlier. Brand names and graphic logos are added below the side pockets, along with star-shaped crystals. The modern tapered silhouette is also just right for adults. ¥26,000
A supporter hoodie featuring a striking graphic of roarguns' cross-guns layered boldly over the F.C.Real Bristol brand logo. A crystal patch is also added to the left chest. ¥28,000 Also available are a practice top and supporter T-shirt in the same design.
