Introducing the Porter x Yohji Yamamoto collaboration bag. The zipper and chain give it a Yohji Yamamoto-esque feel.

Release Date:2021.03.05
Mar 2, 2021

To commemorate the 85th anniversary of Yoshida & Co., Ltd.'s founding, we are releasing a special item in collaboration with Yohji Yamamoto and PORTER.

This collaboration item incorporates the stately taste of Yohji Yamamoto, with distinctive zippers that combine functionality and design, and interchangeable chains of different lengths.

The main material is an original three-layer fabric with a deeper matte finish in the black that is symbolic of both companies' brands. The handles and attached leather are made of combination-tanned cow steer leather with a matte black finish. Featuring a distinctive zipper that combines functionality and design, interchangeable chains of different lengths, and deliberately "spliced" leather joins, this is a one-of-a-kind item that is characteristic of Yohji Yamamoto, with attention to materials and details.

Helmet Bag Type 3 comes with a removable interior pocket and can also be used as a pouch on its own. It also features a special design with the Yohji Yamamoto signature logo embroidered above the PORTER brand tag.

The shoulder strap incorporates an innovative system unique to Yoshida & Co. that allows for smooth adjustment with a single action.
