Lifestyle retail and brand BEAMS introduces the brand new Amekaji collection designed specifically for the Spring/Summer 2022 season. The diverse range of goods blend together inspirations from across the globe, spotlighting Japanese perceptions of retro American casual apparel, which is dubbed 'Amekaji.'

The capsule is made up of relaxed layering silhouettes including stadium jackets crafted from satin, hooded blousons with checkered patterns, linen BDU jackets, vintage denim coveralls with a bio-wash, football tees, heavy rugby shirts, and much more. The capsule is rounded out by some accessory options as well, including a straw-patterned nylon cap with the help of New Era, some beanies, a grocery basket, and trainers.
