Tokyo-based cult brand Sasquatchfabrix. works alongside Japanese sports shoe label ASICSTIGER for a new collaborative capsule. The inspiration that the two labels look towards is the concept of 'Oriental-ism.' The collaborative collection is comprised of a track jacket, matching track pants, and a graphic t-shirt. The pieces are all constructed in beige khaki with bright yellow accenting details.
The Sasquatchfabrix. x ASICSTIGER track pants have tearaway snap button openings along the sides, elastic hemming, and contrasting yellow logo strip details. The track jacket has a seamless shoulder that nods to the capsule's theme. The collaborative collection plans to drop in advance exclusively at Dover Street Market Ginza on April 6, and then officially on April 7 online at Sasquatchfabrix.
