The Red Concept Store, which opened in 2024 to mark the brand's 75th anniversary, offers a variety of heritage styles, with a focus on Onitsuka Tiger's signature model, the MEXICO 66™. Designed under the supervision of Studio Dini Cataldi, the architectural firm led by Philippe Dini and Gianluca Cataldi, the store is based on an architectural concept that blends the brand's Japanese heritage with a modern urban aesthetic.

The single-floor retail space is enveloped in a vibrant Onitsuka Tiger red, inspired by the Japanese cherry blossom. Design elements such as clean lines, modular 3D structures, and sharp geometric patterns echo the minimalism of Japanese architecture, while polished red and black mirrors elevate the overall interior.

A wide variety of products are displayed against a monolithic black concrete display wall and free-standing red glass units that resemble a mesmerizing art installation. The matte black fixtures and white ceiling light boxes create a strong contrast with the bold red, increasing the visibility of the in-store products.
