A Junya Watanabe x Stüssy Collab is Happening
In the form of a reworked hoodie featuring Stüssy's iconic logo.
[Update 6 Mar 2024] Great news! The Junya Watanabe x Stüssy sleeveless hoodie is reported to drop on 15 March at Isetan Shinjuku Men’s, with a retail price tag of 66,000 JPY (~US$440). Stay tuned here for further updates on a wider release.
Paris Fashion Week has given us plenty of glimpses of what’s to come in the sneakersphere, including a new Salehe Bembury x New Balance 1906R and the infamous MSCHF x Crocs Big Yellow Boot.
Speaking of which, Junya Watanabe presented his Spring/Summer 2024 menswear collection with no less than 18 collaborations with various high profile brands, spotted from amongst the label’s 29 runway looks. Out of all the collabs, one of them stood out—a Junya Watanabe x Stüssy hoodie.
There are certainly other hype-worthy big names in Junya Watanabe’s stable of partnerships (Carhartt WIP! Oakley Factory! C.P. Company! Palace!) but none beats this first ever link-up between the Japanese fashion brand and Stüssy.
Staying true to the Junya Watanabe grunge aesthetic, this all-black JW x Stüssy hoodie appears with severely-cropped sleeves that are lined with grommet, Shawn Stüssy’s instantly-recognizable signature emblazoned across the back and left chest in white.
No further details on the Junya Watanabe x Stüssy collab is available except for these pictures of the hoodie, so be sure to watch this space for more latest updates.
