Curated selection of excellent books on "clothing, food, and shelter"!
STUSSY, with its roots in California, presents a lifestyle goods label, "STUSSY Livin’GENERAL STORE." In addition to original goods, they curate timeless items from reputable manufacturers worldwide, offering them through their unique editorial vision.
For its sixth season, the collection focuses on Marfa, Texas – a place chosen by artist Donald Judd as his permanent residence and still a hub for artists' studios. Inspired by a journey through the region in an Airstream, new items are introduced. The lineup features a range of new products, including retro-style flip clocks and stand lights, peanut butter and coffee syrup, and innovative rain shoes.
"BOOKS and STORE" proposes a worldview centered around the "tools" necessary for a better life, alongside "books" gathered through their unique editorial curation.
In addition to the STUSSY Livin' GENERAL STORE lineup, the event will feature and sell publications that convey the prominent culture STUSSY has been committed to since the 80s, as well as excellent books related to "clothing, food, and shelter." Shinichiro Nakahara (LANDSCAPE PRODUCTS), Kunichi Nomura (TRIPSTER), and Takahiro Shibata (Editor/EATer) are participating in the book selection, each presenting their vision of living.
