Junya Watanabe

Junya Watanabe was born in 1961, joined Comme des Garçons in 1984 and has shown his own line under the Comme des Garçons company since 1992, with menswear from 2001. His collections are known for technical fabrics, parachute and military references, pleating, patchwork and reconstructed workwear, including long running collaborations with Levi's, Carhartt and The North Face.

The AKAIBU archive holds Junya Watanabe from 1999 to Fall Winter 2020, with the largest group from Spring Summer 2002 and further pieces from Fall Winter 2003, Fall Winter 2004, Spring Summer 2006, Fall Winter 2013 and Fall Winter 2018. It includes parachute jackets and pants, bondage pieces, reconstructed Levi's denim, patchwork and pleated pieces, floral and striped tops, military skirts and dresses.

Junya Watanabe garments carry the Comme des Garçons production code starting with AD and the year, which allows the season to be identified. We state it in each listing when it can be confirmed.

Every piece in this collection is examined and authenticated in house in Vienna before it is listed. We ship worldwide with tracked delivery, and our showroom in Vienna can be visited by appointment. If you own Junya Watanabe pieces you would like to sell, see Consign with AKAIBU. If you are looking for a specific piece that is not listed, our Sourcing service can search for it.
