Liberaiders" is led by Mei Yong, who was born and raised in Beijing and moved to Japan in his late teens. His creations are characterized by the fact that they reflect what he actually sees and experiences.
For example, for the Spring/Summer 2010 collection, Mei Yong has recently become passionate about camping, and has therefore developed a line of outdoor-inspired items. Moreover, the wide range of creations is one of the appeals of this collection, with some outdoor wear with lots of pockets, and some everyday wear with just a motif.
We present here four items that are easy to wear in everyday life.
JACKALOPE SOUVENIR JACKET ¥33,000
. First, a reversible jacket made of rayon fabric. The jacket has a rugged image, but this one has a different design with a flower on the chest and the back embroidered with Mt. Fuji, a tent, a campfire, and a jackalope, an imaginary animal that symbolizes the world of this season.
The reverse side is a different story, with a simple design featuring the brand name embroidered on the chest and back.
There is a saying that reversibles can only be worn on one side after all, but with this one, you will be able to enjoy both sides of the front and back since they have completely different expressions.
LR LOGOS L/S TEE ¥14,300
The long T is made of 7.0 oz jersey and features the brand's logo from past generations in an all-over pattern. The print is in a similar color to that of the brand's logo, making the item easy to wear for adults.
The color of the body is faded to give it a vintage-like appearance.
This piece summarizes the journey of the Rive Raiders to date, and is a must-check for fans of the brand.
BACK TO THE NATURE TEE ¥7,700
The T-shirt features the message "BACK TO THE NATURE (=return to nature)" and a graphic of the Eye of Providence (God's almighty eye that sees all things) with a pop touch.
Furthermore, the print is a crack print that cracks as it is worn, allowing it to change over time. At first glance, it may look like a simple graphic T-shirt, but the addition of such a one-off detail is a point that is typical of the "Liberaders.
CAMP LOGO TEE ¥6,600
Another graphic T-shirt samples the logo of a well-known company. The word "CAMP" is mixed with a tent motif to create a playful piece of clothing.
The entire garment is frost-washed, which raises the hair and fades the color, so it not only feels great on the skin, but you can enjoy the worn look and feel from the day you buy it.
The Spring/Summer 2010 collection by "Liberaders" chews up the current boom in outdoor camping in its own unique way. The new collection will be launched on April 8 (Fri.).
