Japanese avant-garde icon Yohji Yamamoto continues to build on his collaborative legacy, now joining forces with the legendary manga series Cyborg 009 for a new apparel collection under his Ground Y label.

This collaboration celebrates the manga’s 60th anniversary, and follows a series of recent partnerships, including Ryu Ga Gotoku x WILDSIDE YOHJI YAMAMOTO and CITIZEN x Ground Y.

About the Ground Y x Cyborg 009 Capsule Collection

This release features exclusive illustrations by Ishimori Productions, including long shirts adorned with full depictions of the cyborg warriors, along with shirts and long-sleeve tees showcasing the protagonist, Joe Shimamura, in striking compositions against a black background.

Joe’s special “acceleration mode” ability is creatively transformed into a graphic tee design, inspired by the manga’s panel layouts. The cyborg warriors’ nemesis, “Skull”, is rendered in an impactful, shadowed design. Additionally, select pieces feature Joe Shimamura alongside Dr. YY, a character who also appeared in a previous collab in 2018.

Release Details

With prices ranging from 13,200 JPY (~US$86) to 92,400 JPY (~US$605), the Ground Y x Cyborg 009 60th Anniversary collection is set to launch on 15 November 2024 via Ground Y stores and THESHOPYOHJIYAMAMOTO.com. Don’t miss out!
