Gap, which has been offering modern American casual style since its birth in San Francisco in 1969, celebrated its 50th anniversary this August.
As befitting such an anniversary year, "The 1969 Premium Collection," which expresses the authentic appeal and new value of denim, and "Denim Through the Decades will be launched on September 13 (Friday).
The "1969 Premium Collection" is made of fabric from Kaihara, a leading denim fabric manufacturer in Japan with a history of more than 110 years. The classic silhouette is followed by a washed finish to create a vintage look and feel. In addition to men's and women's wear, kids' and babies' wear are also available.
The 1969 Premium Collection
The "1969," the year of the company's founding, is incorporated into all items, including jeans, jackets, overalls, and sweatshirts.
Denim Through the Decades, on the other hand, features items inspired by the archives from the 70s to the 90s, including corduroy, bright blue wash and flared pants from the 70s, and workwear-inspired hammer loops and utility pockets from the 80s. In the 90s, denim-on-denim coordinates.
Denim Through the Decades
Jeans, denim jackets, shirts, and other authentic items reminiscent of the good old days in America are available.
In addition, Gap has collaborated with 10 artists selected by Gap! A limited edition T-shirt featuring the illustrations and graphics will be given away, and a campaign to have original embroidery applied to denim will also begin on September 13 (Fri.) exclusively at the flagship Ginza store.
