WIND AND SEA TECH COLLECTION debuts for Fall/Winter 2026-27.

WIND AND SEA TECH COLLECTION anchors the brand's Fall/Winter 2026-27 lineup with apparel developed around performance-focused materials for everyday wear. The collection introduces a tailored setup constructed from stretch TR-wool fabric, pairing a structured jacket with easy pants that balance flexibility, durability, and a refined appearance. Additional categories include lightweight Tech Fleece garments engineered for insulation, washable wool knitwear that simplifies maintenance, and a quick-drying jersey series featuring a cotton exterior backed with polyester to improve moisture management. Each piece is designed for movement between urban settings and everyday activities without departing from the label's contemporary aesthetic.

Technical accessories extend the material-focused approach with CORDURA ballistic waist bags and backpacks featuring lightweight, water-repellent construction for commuting, travel, and outdoor use. The collection emphasizes fabric performance through insulation, stretch, durability, breathability, and ease of care while maintaining clean silhouettes and understated detailing. WIND AND SEA TECH COLLECTION launches on August 8 through the brand's official online store and WIND AND SEA locations in Tokyo, Osaka, Hankyu Umeda, and Gotemba.
