Yohji Yamamoto × PORTER collaboration second release! High-density woven nylon twill fabric with a wrinkled design

Release Date:2021.07.01
Jun 28, 2021

We are pleased to announce the release of Vol. 2 of the collaboration between Yohji Yamamoto and PORTER.

This collaborative item incorporates the distinctive brand style of Yohji Yamamoto, boldly incorporating wrinkles, which at first glance are seen as an element unrelated to beauty, into the design. The main material is Yoshida & Co.'s original fabric, a high-density woven nylon twill fabric created using a special technique to create a wrinkled appearance.

It features a diagonally attached zipper on the front and a three-dimensional form, and the attached leather on the base is made of alternating nubuck and smooth leather with different textures. Furthermore, reflective cords are attached to the base, and highly functional parts are used as part of the design in key areas of the backpack and messenger bag.

The mesh material on the back has a special specification with the Yohji Yamamoto signature logo embroidered above the PORTER brand tag.

It will be on sale in limited quantities from July 1st at Yohji Yamamoto HOMME stores nationwide (excluding Sogo Yokohama store), the Yohji Yamamoto official online store (https://theshopyohjiyamamoto.jp/shop/e/ePORTER2/), PORTER flagship store, PORTER EXCHANGE, PORTER STAND, PORTER KOREA APGJEOUNG, and the Yoshida Kaban official online store (https://www.yoshidakaban.com/index.html).

BACKPACK
This highly functional backpack features a large-capacity main compartment and a cushioned pocket in the back that can hold a laptop. The chest strap can be easily removed using an original part made by the German company FID LOCK(R)︎, which opens and closes easily with a magnet. The two handles attached to the top serve as support when pulling the bag forward from the back to access your belongings, making it easy to access your belongings from either the left or right side.
BACKPACK: ¥91,300 (tax included)
Size: W320/H500/D230

MESSENGER BAG
The messenger bag features a large-capacity main compartment with a padded pocket that can hold a laptop. The laptop compartment can be accessed directly from the zipper on the top, without having to open the flap. The flap uses a quick-release buckle, a type used by the German military, that can be easily removed with a single action. This original buckle is engraved with the PORTER logo and is a functional part that also acts as a stopper to prevent items from falling out. It also comes with cushioned shoulder pads made from the same fabric as the bag itself.
MESSENGER BAG: ¥78,100 (tax included)
Size: W370/H240/D140

WAIST BAG
The waist bag has a two-layer structure with a large-capacity main layer and a divider pocket that is convenient for organizing small items. By using padding over a wide area that comes into contact with the waist and shoulders, the bag maintains its shape and fits snugly to the body. Reflective cord and nylon tape are attached to the zipper slider, allowing for smooth opening and closing. The handle attached to the top can be used to move the bag to the front of your body when worn diagonally, or to support it when removing items.
WAIST BAG: ¥51,700 (tax included)
Size: W430/H310/D150
