The 2nd drop of Fall/Winter 2025
Hello, this is Taku at KUON.
As the quiet strength of “Shinobu” continues to guide our Fall/Winter 2025 narrative, we are delighted to introduce the Second Drop of the season.
While the first drop unveiled the subtle poise of reversible blazers and hakama trousers—grounded in Sashiko and kimono aesthetics—this next wave deepens our exploration of texture, tradition, and intelligent versatility.
Below, we highlight some key pieces that seamlessly merge heritage craftsmanship with understated functional elegance.
Pick Up Items
Arimatsu Shibori Knit Jacket
A knit jacket enriched with the timeless beauty of Arimatsu shibori—the intricate tie-dye technique that pulses with history.
Each fold and shadow in the fabric tells a story, offering a tactile garment that invites both comfort and contemplation.
You can wear it inside out as a quilted bomber jacket.
The Cotton Twill Hakama Trousers worn in the above photos will also be available in this drop.
Arimatsu Shibori Crew Socks
Matching Shibori socks will be available along with the jacket.
They lend your steps a nuanced touch of pattern, echoing the season’s enduring craftsmanship from head to toe.
Kimono Collar Quilted Shirket
The one introduced here is drawing inspiration from Japanese traditional styles not techniques.
Merging the purposeful layering of a quilt with the tranquil grace of a kimono collar—this shirket (shirt + jacket) reimagines casual outerwear.
Overlapping front adds more essence of Japanese traditional clothing.
Reversible Fleece Hoodie
Our new fleece hoodie inspired by Shinobi(Ninja) now offers duality in style, with two faces that echo the reversible blazer of Drop 1.
The hood covers bottom half of your face just like Ninja when put on.
Convertible Fleece Trousers
A perfect partner to the hoodie, these convertible trousers offer different duality.
The shape can be changed by the zippers on side.
The tapered shape resembles Ninja trousers.
Boro Waist Bag
This funny pack is a compact companion that carries both daily-use items and history in its folds.
You can feel the past from the zipper tabs made of vintage Boro, and the present and the future from the finely printed Nylon fabric.
Available Soon In-Stores & Online
Dive deeper into the world of “Shinobu” with these new arrivals—each piece a thoughtful interweaving of tradition, materiality, and modern quietude. We look forward to seeing how you bring them into life.
Explore the full Second Drop at our store, online store and our retail partners on Sat, August 16, JST.
