Japanese outerwear label and wander is one of the most notable brands that specialized in creating winter wearables. It was founded by Keita Ikeuchi and Mihoto Mori, both of which were designers at Issey Miyake prior. The two are now launching a collection under and wander for the Fall/Winter 2021 season.
This is comprised of silhouettes such as fleece designs, shell jackets, dramatically pocketed overshirts, trek pants, trail caps, backpacks, and much more. The design language is very earthy, seen through the color palette of white, beige, and gray predominantly. This launch also nods to some special collaborations as it shows off joint work with Salomon. The seasonal range is set to drop online in the coming weeks.
