SEVESKIG x EVANGELION Collection: Cult Classic Meets Cult Fashion

Avant-garde Japanese label SEVESKIG and cult classic animé Neon Genesis Evangelion come together for a wearable collection, including three HYPE DROP-exclusive pieces.

Japan’s reputation for innovation precedes it, permeating every facet of its cultural exports. Fashion and animation, two pillars of the nation’s creative expression, have often revolved around each other’s orbit. Again, these two worlds collide, emerging from the creative vortex with a wearable collection.

Shinji, Rei, and Asuka—the iconic protagonists of Neon Genesis Evangelion—step into their EVAs once more; not to prevent the Third Impact, but rather to welcome a sartorial one with SEVESKIG.

EVANGELION

Considered one of the greatest animé of all time, Neon Genesis Evangelion (or known simply as Evangelion or Eva) was created by Hideaki Anno and had its original run between 1995–96. Decades since, the legacy of the show continues through its many crossovers in different mediums and several OVAs.

SEVESKIG

Founded in 2012 by Takanori Nagano, the brand is imbued with his concept of “creating products that truly impress when held and worn”. He translates his diverse background in animé, art, and the motorcycle industry into unique garments. A catalyst to his many collaborations across various creative fields.

Presenting the SEVESKIG x EVANGELION Collection, featuring an array of apparel integrating the animé’s hallmark iconography with the brand’s signature motifs and design language:
