Masataka Kubota x LOEWE/PEERLESS | It's as it is. In search of the skill of a craftsman who evokes individuality

We pursue unique aesthetics and achieve evolution
"Future vintage" drawn by visvim

Since its inception in 2000, visvim has continued to explore "universal beauty" and "creating products that will remain in future generations." The products created for each collection are inspired by traditional crafts from around the world that touched the koto line of designer Hiroki Nakamura and inherited techniques, and are expressed in various forms through the filters of visvim. The tweed sttain collar coat, a new 2022AW wears by Masataka Kubota, has a dry texture like a vintage, with a variety of irregular threads from different materials and guards in a complex manner, and has a random expression and time passed. The unique expression unique to visvim, which emphasizes the manual process that cannot be realized with mass-produced clothes, with a luxurious touch and age, is why people around the world are appealing and loved.

Maintain a Timeless Manufacturing Philosophy
The taste created by the owner and the charm of "for generations"

"Recently, I've come across something that I want to use carefully. It is a Japanese lacquer bowl made from natural pesticide-free. When it is made of Japanese-grown wood, there are about 50 processes to produce one.…It is created with a very time-consuming craftsmanship. It's strange, but as I use it, it shines more and more. Lacquer is difficult to use in everyday life…It's said that it's the opposite. This kind of real Japanese lacquerware can be used until the grandchildren's generation, so it is called "for generations." I'm growing it now because it's shining more and more." "For generations," it synchronizes with the aesthetics embodyed by visvim, which respects manual processes and pursues superior quality. The jacket worn by Mr. Kubota, inspired by the 2022AW fire extinguisher (old firefighter), uses cotton for the installation to warm up friction, creating a beautiful drape and comfortable tension. The silk shirt uses Tango Chirimen Crepe in the Tango region of Kyoto, which has been mainly used for kimono fabrics. The moist texture and supple feel are exactly the skill of craftsmen. The FREEDOM embroidered cap is made of different wool and linen threads to create a unique unevenness to create a vintage look.

Faced with expressive products
An authentic space like a gallery

"PEERLESS" on the 3rd floor of Shibuya PARCO is the only shop in Japan that offers PEERLESS limited products in addition to the visvim collection. At PEERLESS, which means "no similar or unmatched," there are plenty of items that can only be found at this store. Shops with natural light, such as a fitting room made of bricks made of dead stock, re-firing with a natural material glaze, a floor of Sanwa-do, a building material that has long been seen in the soils of Japanese houses, and a plasterer-finished plaster wall. The shop itself has changed over time and has become even more beautiful.

"Liberation ahead of tension"
Memory of the beginning as an actor

"It was a studio close to Shibuya PARCO that received the audition of the drama, which was the actor's debut work (2006). It was my first experience to play in an audition, and I had about the third audition, and it was just my first experience. To be honest, I don't know the play yet, but I feel like I've faced the first time in my life with something like "liberation ahead of tension" in that audition. After that, I finally got into the scene - that's the starting point for my actor."
