Junya Watanabe Man

Protege of Rei Kawakubo, Junya Watanabe founded namesake label in 1994 under the umbrella of the Comme des Garçons brand before adding his iconic menswear collection in 2002. Watanabe’s inimitable style is characterized by a profound appreciation of the construction and quality of vintage mens workwear and military uniforms. This appreciation, in the masterful hands of Watanabe, leads to highly complex and unexpected new masculine hybrids, with layered use of fabrics, maniacal detailing and technologically advanced manufacturing methods.
