Three Exclusive AMERICAN RAG CIE Items Created
This season, designer Shunsuke Ishikawa states, "Returning to basics, we focused on the brand's core elements of military and tailoring."
From the Spring/Summer 2015 collection, which emphasizes a return to origins through meticulous materials and reliable sewing techniques, three exclusive AMERICAN RAG CIE items—a T-shirt, a fatigue shirt, and a helmet bag—have been created in line with the theme of "FATIGUE." Furthermore, exclusive women's items, a first for MARKAWARE, will also be available.
Military-Inspired Menswear
The "MARKAWARE × AMERICAN RAG CIE" T-shirt captures the relaxed sizing of vintage wear with a slightly loose silhouette. The logo is an adaptation of the "US NAVY" motif. The black version will be exclusively sold at the Namba Parks store.
The fatigue shirt is a model not found in MARKAWARE's main collection, custom-ordered from the pattern. Based on a 1960s fatigue shirt, it prioritizes a simple appearance and comfortable wear.
The helmet bag is based on the brand's archives and updated with a three-way carrying system. Features like stowable straps when not used as a backpack ensure a design that is practical for daily use. Also noteworthy is the revival of MARKAWARE's old tag specifically for this collaboration.
During the event, customers who purchase eligible items will receive a tiger camouflage eco-bag (limited quantity).
