Takashi Murakami’s Ohana Hatake Full-Bloom finally went loud in its first multicolor pack, turning the smiling-flower slip-on into something that looks less like a niche collector’s flex and more like a real summer shoe. The three new colorways, Pink/White/Yellow, Black/White/Black and Yellow/White/Yellow, give the EVA silhouette a much bigger visual range without losing the toy-like charm that made the model stand out in the first place.

The release landed on Wednesday, April 22, 2026, at 9 a.m. PT, sold exclusively through Ohana Hatake’s online store. Ahead of the drop, the brand’s site listed the styles as coming soon and pushed notification sign-ups, while the pack also surfaced at ComplexCon Hong Kong in marketplace form, where the shoe got a more public runway than the brand’s early raffle-only chapters.

That matters because Ohana Hatake has always sat in a sweet spot between art object and wearable product. Murakami launched the independent footwear brand in November 2024 with the Full-Bloom and Surippa Ohana silhouettes, working with footwear experts at VIOLET ST. The name itself translates to “field of flowers,” and the line has been framed as a bridge between Murakami’s art, Japanese influence and everyday footwear. Early Full-Bloom releases like Apricot and Raspberry Rose were handled as raffle colorways, which kept the shoe in collector territory. This multicolor pack feels broader, sharper and more ready for rotation.

The best part is how easy the shoe is to decode by outfit mood. Pink/White/Yellow is the loud one, the pair for baggy denim, graphic tees and anything that can handle a sugar-high hit of color. Black/White/Black is the cleanest entry point, better suited to monochrome wardrobes, workwear pants and technical shorts that need a playful left turn without losing control. Yellow/White/Yellow is the most obviously warm-weather option, the one that reads best with washed cargos, nylon sets and anything headed toward water, sand or pavement heat.

Ohana Hatake built the Full-Bloom with lightweight, durable EVA foam, then upgraded it with a softer footbed and traction-focused outsole. It is water-friendly and easy to clean, which is exactly why expressive footwear is getting easier to wear right now: it can look like a statement piece and still survive an actual day outside. Murakami’s flower has moved past novelty. This pack makes the case that it belongs in the summer rotation.
