Jotaro Joden

These are the menswear happenings to have on your radar, including AllSaints’ London-inspired scents, Maison Margiela and Gentle Monster’s 68-piece capsule, and JJJJound x Danner’s hiking boots.

Louis Vuitton is ready “Whatever The Weather”

With the unpredictable weather upon us, Louis Vuitton prepares for turbulent conditions with its Spring/Summer 2027 pre-collection. Shot by Oliver Hadlee Pearch, the campaign shows off the fluctuating environment that’s combated by the water-resistant items in the collection. Monogrammed umbrellas, water-wicking rain jackets, and heavy-duty travel essentials are more than prepared for the changing climate, allowing for a transition from day to night, dry to damp. Check out the collection, available online and in-store now.

AllSaints unveils fragrances inspired by nocturnal London

Aptly titled “Made of London”, AllSaints’ Aaron Esh introduces a range of scents that take from the unexpected, intimate nights in the UK capital. Presenting six new fragrances that suit the multi-faceted characters of the AllSaints wearer, the offering includes Sunset Riot Intense (pink pepper, orange flower and amber), Shoreditch Leather (saffron, leather accord and patchouli essence), Ravaged Rose (Italian bergamot, rose damascena soft musks), Sacred Sands (coastal cypress, caviar, iris and mineral vanilla) and Naked Woods (apple leaves, rhubarb, geranium and amber woods). Check out the collection in-store and online now.

Wales Bonner and adidas reunite

Building on the collaborative duo’s aesthetic codes, the pair refreshes its footwear with crocodile leather, suede and pony hair makeovers, alongside its apparel offering. The sneaker models in question are the WB Karintha, WB Gazelle Snake, WB Adizero Adios Suede, and WB BW Pony which all get a lifestyle revamp. The leather blouson in Wales Bonner’s signature bark colour sits at the forefront of the apparel capsule, alongside a sportswear-inspired lineup that spans double knit jersey tracksuits to collared football tops. Check out the collection, available in-store and online now.

Maison Margiela and Gentle Monster are into deconstruction

Spanning 43 sunglasses and 25 optical frames, the French House Maison Margiela and South Korean eyewear specialists Gentle Monster reunite for a fourth collaborative capsule. Centred around the idea of deconstruction, the range highlights exaggerated proportions and unswept shapes wrapped in leather that mimic a “Second Skin” effect. The signature four stitches can also be found throughout the collection, with slimmer silhouettes introducing a new application that makes them appear woven into the frames’ arms. Immersive pop-ups also accompany the launch, spanning Seoul, Tokyo, Shanghai, Beijing, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, Melbourne, and Paris. Check out the range now, available online and in-store.

Auralee and Tekla go for seconds

Blending Japanese craftsmanship with Scandinavian comfort, Auralee and Tekla’s sophomore collaboration introduces wool-cashmere knitwear to its latest offering. That comes in the form of crewneck cardigans, boatneck sweaters, and arm and neck warmers in Forest Green and Soil Brown colourways. Accompanying them is a flannel sleepwear set in a purple and orange “Dawn Check” pattern, along with shearling slippers and home textiles. Check out the collection now, available online and in-store.

JJJJound puts its minimal spin on Danner hiking boots

Reworking the legendary and archival Mountain Light boot, the Montreal-based design studio offers two contrasting material choices in black and charcoal iterations. The former arrives in a smooth black leather whilst the latter features a rich suede for a softer, texturised appearance. Both sit atop a rugged Vibram outsole and feature silver eyelets, tonal laces and a JJJJound label on the tongue. Check them out now, available online and in-store.

Harry Kane is a Ballon d’Or winner in Skechers boots

A deserved winner of the most prestigious individual award in football, the England international and Bayern Munich star unveils his special-edition boots to commemorate the crowning moment. The campaign shows off an exclusive white-and-gold colourway of his signature SKX_2 model as he beat out fierce competition from Lamine Yamal and Kylian Mbappé to go all the way, becoming the first Englishman to win it since Michael Owen in 2001. Check out the campaign here.

Yohji Yamamoto to receive the Outstanding Achievement Award

Honouring the Japanese designer’s undeniable legacy and pioneering design codes, the British Fashion Council will present Yohji Yamamoto with the award at the upcoming Fashion Awards 2026. The commemoration celebrates the visionary designer’s subversive tailoring and transformative interpretations on womenswear. Taking place on 30th November in London, he’ll be joining a roster of highly lauded names, including Ralph Lauren, Tom Ford, and Miuccia Prada.

COMMUNITÉ expands to Galataport

The Istanbul-based concept store builds on its next-generation retail model with a second space, this time located in Galataport shopping centre by the city’s seafront. Developed by Turkish retail group Boyner, it brings together fashion, beauty, wellness, art and design under one very stylish roof. The curation is, as you’d expect, top drawer, combining the world's biggest names in luxury such as Comme des Garçons and JW Anderson with menswear specialists like Husbands and Drake’s.
