Symphony of denim and functional materials. The DWC team from Taiwan opened a pop-up store for a limited time.

It is no secret that the Asian fashion scene is attracting worldwide attention, and attractive brands are emerging from outside of Japan, China, and Korea.

Take Taiwan, for example. I have the impression that there is a budding trend toward independent and challenging manufacturing brands that use a variety of color schemes and bold materials.

DYCTEAM®, born in 2008, is one such brand. DYCTEAM® is a brand that makes full use of high-functional materials and denim, while developing original items with a twist.

The DWC team will open a pop-up store at the Lumine Shinjuku and Nagoya Parco stores of nano・universe from March 19 (Fri.). A wide variety of items that can only be found here will be available.

3D PATCH POCKET JACKET ¥29,700 in TAX

First up is a collarless jacket that works well both in the city and outdoors.

The neck is neat, so the inner garment will not be draped, and you can enjoy layering by adding a shirt or a turtleneck inside.

The material used is Coolmax, a high-performance material. Its excellent water absorption and quick-drying properties keep you dry and comfortable.

The most distinctive feature is the 3D patch pockets placed in three locations on the body. The pockets have a solid gusset like a docked pouch, so they are perfect for storage. It will come in handy in outdoor scenes such as fishing and camping.

FULL LENGTH TAPERED PANTS ¥26,400 in TAX

The pants, which are made of the same fabric as the aforementioned jacket, are tapered, which is now the mainstream style. The wide silhouette with large tucks and roominess makes them versatile enough to suit any style.

Black thread is generally used for sewing on black pants, but white thread is used for the edges of the pockets. This is not a show-off, but an accent that is a specialty of the experts.

STITCHING SHIRT ¥24,200 in TAX

. Next is a technical shirt that switches between white and blue striped fabric.

It has flap pockets on both chests and hidden pockets on both sides of the waist, incorporating workwear design. Rather than a shirt, it is more like a "coverall made of shirt material.

TRIANGLE JACQUARD PATCH POCKET SHIRT ¥29,700 in TAX

A short-sleeved denim shirt with a randomly arranged triangle pattern. From a distance, it looks like a camouflage, giving it a military-like appearance.

If you are not a fan of denim for the coming season, don't worry. The fabric is very soft and the body is wide, making it light and comfortable, unlike conventional denim.

ICE BLOCK JACQUARD JACKET ¥31,900 in TAX

The lineup also includes a blue collection co-created with a denim factory that is used by high-end maisons. The centerpiece of the collection is a denim jacket with a vintage feel, with patches and coloring that fades toward the hem.

The triangles expressed by the damage processing show that this is a very elaborate item. The pockets are placed low and the gussets are deep, and even the smallest details make this jacket stand out from ordinary denim jackets.

ICE BLOCK JACQUARD PANTS ¥31,900 in TAX

. These denim pants are made using the same technique as the jacket above.

From now on, you will be wearing lighter clothes, but just by wearing this with a white T, it will have enough impact. Another nice point is that they are soft and comfortable to wear. If you are looking for a pair of pants that can play a leading role in spring and summer, it is worth a look.

SEE-THROUGH LEOPARD PATTERN JACQUARD T-SHIRT ¥17,600 in TAX

The T-shirt has a unique design that expresses a leopard pattern by combining see-through material and denim. This item can be changed in any way depending on the innerwear.

It's quite bizarre, but the look is surprisingly familiar, so if you're a fanatic who has worn out your regular T-shirts, why not give it a try?

During the event, leather card cases will be given to the first purchasers on a first-come, first-served basis . It is a solid piece of work that is hard to believe it is a novelty, and can be used as a periodical holder or a coin case. This is a rare opportunity to experience an unknown aspect of Taiwanese fashion, so please come and visit us.
