The Wind And Sea Space Jam 30th anniversary collection is a capsule apparel and accessories range created by Tokyo-based streetwear brand Wind And Sea to mark three decades since the 1996 release of the film Space Jam. The collection draws on a 1990s sports aesthetic and features graphic prints of Tune Squad characters, including Bugs Bunny, alongside the film’s iconic logo.
Items in the series include zip-up hoodies, sweatshirts, track pants, graphic T-shirts, and key holders that incorporate basketball-inspired elements and bold retro graphics. The color palette and silhouettes reflect classic streetwear and athletic influences tied to the original movie era. An early-access pop-up event for the collection is scheduled at Shibuya Parco in Tokyo from January 15 to January 20, featuring a basketball goal challenge with opportunities to receive exclusive stickers and character appearances on January 17 and 18.
