The capsule was led by creative director Andew Pompilio, delivering updates such as new sole units on retro looks. The latest goods follow the mantra of the "Onitsuka Tiger Attitude." This is mainly translated through the color palette, made up of [bright orange, gold, and blue](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vowels-1) along with more muted options such as tan and white colors. The ideology shines a spotlight on the wearables as well and the selection of bags that are true to the brand's heritage.
