A Collaboration with the Pinnacle of Remake Brands, "Dr.ROMANELLI"
Focus on the First Release of the "The ARC" Project
ANACHRONORM, a domestic brand committed to Japanese craftsmanship, where everything from threads to sewing, processing, dyeing, and washing is born from sessions with professionals. This season marks the launch of the collaboration project "The ARC" (Anachronorm Romanelli Capsule) with Dr. ROMANELLI, a pioneering brand in remakes.

The First Release of the Project Features Three Items
The brand ANACHRONORM actively utilizes Japan's latest technologies, not for industrial mass production, but to express the unrefined, rugged, one-off feel (handmade quality) of the pre-1960s era. It proposes textures and nuances born from predominantly manual work in a contemporary, new style. This philosophy is evident in the brand name "ANACHRONORM," a combination of ANACHRONISM (anachronism in a good sense) and NORM (standard).
Meanwhile, Dr. ROMANELLI is a world-leading remake brand, excelling in exceptional reconstruction sense and cutting techniques. Designer Darren Romanelli is famously known as the only artist officially permitted by Nike to perform remakes, and his creations are always highly anticipated as unique, one-of-a-kind pieces.
ANACHRONORM, with its concept of "the next vintage and standard," and Dr. Romanelli, who releases exclusive items with various brands, collaborated in 2010 to commemorate the 10th anniversary of "Balance Tokyo." Now, they have newly launched the "The ARC" (Anachronorm Romanelli Capsule) project.
The first release includes a total of three items: the "Combi Drizzier Jacket," the "Combi Drizzier Pants," and the "Printed T-Shirts" made using ANACHRONORM's original T-shirts.
These three items are reborn through the creations of Darren Romanelli. They are absolutely worth your attention.
