Wism, the leader of Shibuya's Cat Street, has relocated and reopened. With even more energy, it will continue to roll!


WISM opened in Shibuya in the summer of 2012.

We at HOUYHNHNM's pride ourselves on having followed the "whisms" more than any other media. Why? Simply because it's interesting, isn't it? Passion, passion, energy . It is a store where those things are concentrated, thick, hard, and many.

This year marks the 10th anniversary of Wism. The first store, the Shibuya store, has reopened in a new location. It is about a 5-minute walk from the old store toward Shibuya station.

On the occasion of the new opening of the Shibuya branch, we are creating commemorative items with various brands.

First of all, "ANCELLM" has become an indispensable brand in the recent "wism.

The brand's signature item, the dynamic crash sweatshirt, is available in different colors.

The craftsman and all the hole locations were balanced to take it into the realm of crash, not damage, and the V-neck on the front view was not cut, but holes.

¥36,300

Various processes were applied from there, and by intentionally causing twists and turns, a completely new sweatshirt was completed. Incidentally, the printed part is dyed with a dye that changes its expression as it is washed.

Next up is our good friend WILLY CHAVARRIA and his cotton knit polo shirt.

The wide spread and four large buttons give it a size balance that is unique to "Willie Chavarria.

Two colors based on the pattern that is available in short sleeves this season , and also a "wizm"-like black.

Willie says, "The thicker the pitch of the border, the more Chinese it is. . Therefore, we are delivering it in a thicker pitch.

Coincidentally, " Doublet" is also celebrating its 10th anniversary this year. The efforts of the two companies have been a source of much amusement to us.

Based on the unchanging concept of clothes that generate conversation and smiles, this time around we produced a moving T-shirt reminiscent of a certain villain. . Yes, the "Why so serious?

Designer Remy is pioneering his own production line, releasing items full of originality at his own pace on an irregular basis.

Remy started out as a clerk at a recycle store and remade the clothes there, which was the beginning of the brand.

The front, back, left and right sleeves are all joined together with different old clothes and printed all over.

The designers have a deep knowledge of art, culture, and lifestyle in general, and in addition, they value their local connections, and are popular for the warm atmosphere they create, such as creating uniforms for the coffee shops they frequent.

This time, we have selected a cap that they have developed originally. The caps are made in the U.S.A. using a completely original manufacturing process, and are sold out even online.

The theme of the reopened store is "New Energy. The name "New Energy" was chosen because it means "to give form to the power and energy to create something new.

It is getting harder and harder to make a difference in today's select stores, but "Wism" is a strong store that always maintains its originality and my style.

I am sure that they will continue to sharpen and evolve without wavering from their roots. HOUYHNHNM will continue to follow in their footsteps.
