Limited Store-Opening Apparel

Union Joins Wasted Youth on a New Celebratory Collection

— October 6, 2022 — Lifestyle
Fashion imprint Union is preparing to open a new store in the bustling city of Osaka and taps the help of Wasted Youth to create a special limited collection to honor the occasion. The duo delivers an exclusive new range that is inspired by youth and skate culture throughout.

The latest looks highlight Union's ambiguous Frontman logo that came into fruition last year during the brand's 30th anniversary. It is seen detailing a selection of light blue tees and grey-tonal cordless hoodies. Accompanying this is a custom hand-drawn co-branded touch that rests right above the chest section. The lookbook is shot in Osaka and features Wasted Youth team riders Taro Sakai, Red Suematsu, and Issei Mori.
