BEAMS has collaborated with the Japanese accessories brand SLOW to introduce a captivating capsule collection that merges contemporary design with historical influences.
The collaborative capsule features three distinct bag styles: AZUMA, NYLON HELMET BAG, and NYLON RUCK SACK.
The AZUMA bag is a modern interpretation of fabric-wrapped bags from the Edo era, with unique leather handles and straps that complement its nylon main body. The NYLON HELMET BAG and NYLON RUCK SACK take cues from military goods, showcasing a practical aesthetic and functional design. Both styles feature tonal nylon constructions and spacious interiors suitable for everyday use.
The AZUMA bag, priced at ¥15,400 JPY ($100 USD), is currently available for purchase online and at BEAM's physical stores across Japan. The NYLON HELMET BAG and NYLON RUCK SACK will officially launch on June 7.
