Cute is not the only thing Chums does. We collaborated with stencil artist Tsutomu Moriya to create punkish items.

Brands that focus solely on making clothes in a stoic manner have their own appeal, but I’m also drawn to brands that collaborate with creators to explore new forms of expression.

“CHUMS〉is one such example. Let me share one of our recent initiatives.

Chums’ theme for 2026 is “Learning from the Past to Create the Future.” This time, stencil artistTsutomu MoriyaTo celebrate this occasion, we have created a collaboration collection.

When creating this product, Mr. Moriya drew inspiration from the history of Chums. The brand began when a river guide in Utah, USA, invented a retainer to keep sunglasses from falling off. Mr. Miyaji incorporated the spirit of hippies, punks, and skaters—embodied by attitudes like “if it doesn’t exist, we’ll make it ourselves” and “we won’t bow to authority”—into his products.

Created using stencils and spray paint, this piece features a contemporary interpretation that is quintessentially Moriya. Although mass-produced, we took great care to ensure it retains the feel of a one-of-a-kind, handmade piece.

The product lineup is as follows.

Military Coat ¥28,380 (Available in January)
