WILDSIDE Yohji Yamamoto x TRADMAN'S BONSAI Six-Piece Capsule Features Bold Embroidery

WILDSIDE Yohji Yamamoto has teamed with TRADMAN’S BONSAI, led by Teppei Kojima, on a six-piece SS26 capsule that reimagines traditional Japanese bonsai through a contemporary fashion lens. The collaboration pivots on the Goyomatsu Moyogi‑Mei ‘501’ Japanese Five-Needle Pine, translating that tree into bold embroidery, monotone prints, and jacquard linings that pair Yohji Yamamoto’s dark tailoring with TRADMAN’S cultural storytelling.

The capsule’s centerpiece is the Reversible Souvenir Jacket, SK‑Y35‑253, displayed as a reversible GIF on WILDSIDE-online. The jacket carries a bold monochromatic embroidery of the ‘501’ pine across the back and reverses to an intricate jacquard-woven collage of TRADMAN’S BONSAI specimens, including Black Pine and Juniper, producing a unique camouflage-like textile that flips the garment’s mood from formal to illustrative.

Tailoring is central elsewhere in the drop. A Cotton Chino 2B Tailored Collar Jacket, SK‑J40‑001, and matching Cotton Chino Asymmetry Pocket Drawstring Pants, SK‑P57‑001, present minimalist black exteriors while revealing the bonsai jacquard collage as lining, an effect the collaborators describe as hidden playfulness. The collection also includes a Rayon Print Shirt, SK‑B19‑252, printed with bonsai-inspired motifs to sit between the overt embroidery of the jacket and the quiet of the tailored set.

Accessories and casual staples round out the six items. A Bonsai Embroidered T‑shirt, SK‑T30‑003, and a Bonsai Embroidered Tie, SK‑N01‑401, both carry the bonsai motif in embroidery treatments; WILDSIDE-online displays RE STOCK flags alongside those two SKUs. The full six-piece list is completed by the rayon shirt and the tailored chino set, confirming the capsule’s size and composition on the brand’s New in pages.

WILDSIDE-online lists the collection with a retail release timestamp of 6 Mar 12:00 JST, and product pages show SK codes for each item, though no prices or production run numbers are published. Materials called out on product listings include cotton for the chino jacket and pants and rayon for the print shirt; detailed fabric compositions and global stock windows remain unlisted.

This capsule matters because it insists on detail as revelation: monochrome exteriors that conceal jacquard collages, a reversible souvenir jacket that reads as both statement and lining study, and a planter’s single tree, the Goyomatsu Moyogi‑Mei ‘501’, elevated to motif across tailoring, knitwear, and accessories.
