Ne-net, a brand created by designer Issei Takashima, has collaborated with Thai cartoonist Wisut Ponnimit, also known as "Tam-kun." Apparel and accessories will be released on April 27th.

The lineup includes shirts (15,750 yen), T-shirts (3,675 to 6,825 yen), bandanas (1,680 yen), brooches, and hair ties (2,415 yen each) featuring Tam-kun's characters "Mamuang-chan" and "Dora-chan." Additionally, customers who spend over 7,350 yen (tax included) between April 27th and May 7th will receive a free "Mamuang-chan drawstring bag" (limited quantity) on a first-come, first-served basis.

In addition, a signing session and live painting session with Tam-kun will be held at the Ne-net Daikanyama store on April 27th. Fifteen "Meow Bags" customized by Tam will be sold exclusively at the store.
According to a public relations representative for the brand, designer Takashima first learned about Ne-net about six years ago when an acquaintance told Wisut, "Tam has a Ne-net "meow" pouch." When Wisut was approached about the collaboration, he readily accepted, saying, "I've bought Ne-net products before, and it's a brand I like." Takashima even traveled to Bangkok to meet Wisut, who drew an illustration of Mamuang searching for a cat.
Wisut was born in Bangkok, Thailand in 1976. After making his debut as a manga artist in 1998, he studied abroad in Kobe in 2003 and stayed in Japan until 2006. His works include the "Mamuang" series, "Swing," and "Heeshee It," and he also produces animation and is involved in music.
