Needles
Japanese Craftsmanship Meets Vintage Americana
Needles, founded by visionary designer Keizo Shimizu, stands as a pillar of distinctive Japanese luxury streetwear.
Emerging from Nepenthes, Needles carves its unique path by masterfully blending Americana's rich heritage with a refined Japanese aesthetic. The brand reinterprets classic sportswear, military apparel, and vintage silhouettes, infusing them with an unmistakable contemporary edge.
At the heart of Needles' allure are its iconic Needles track pants, instantly recognizable by their signature side stripes and the embroidered Papillon (butterfly) logo, a subtle nod to the film "Papillon." Crafted from premium materials like the revered Poly Smooth fabric, these garments offer unparalleled comfort and style.
Shimizu's approach is one of careful deconstruction and reconstruction, transforming familiar forms into fresh, often asymmetrical, and always intriguing designs. This commitment to unique expression and impeccable tailoring has cemented Needles' reputation as a connoisseur's choice in the global fashion landscape.
