Apparently this collection is Takashi taking what he felt is the best of his 9 years of work and reviving them. Interesting but somewhat lazy to just re-release garments from previous collections. Good news, Those who missed out on iconic pieces like the SCAB jeans now have another chance at them ."Instead of feeling alone in a group, it's better to have real solitude all by yourself"

Anyone know if this image set is complete? What's with the gap between 06 and 12?

Really love it. Let's hope some U.S. retailers do a decent buy of this...
According to style.com, the old designs are done in new fabrications so it's not exact replicas. Also a testament to Jun's design that not a single look seems dated or out of place.Last edited by casem; 07-01-2015, 02:07 AM.

Yeah, they aren't identical replicas. Those familiar with the pieces will notice, like you said, new colors, fabrics, patterns, prints.
Hypebeast actually put together a nice little slider so you can compare
Looking back at the iconic garments that have been refashioned to create the UNDERCOVER 2016 spring/summer collection.

I guess I need to send the record straight here. If you read the Shitbeast text, you'd see that Undercover is celebrating 25th year anniversary. There will be a huge exhibit in Tokyo of Jun's body of work. While he was prowling the archives he had the idea to reissue variations of old work. These are not straight copies, mind you. So, I wouldn't say this is lazy by any stretch of imagination. There was A LOT of great stuff at the showroom. Actually, I think it's probably the most exciting thing I saw this entire men's fashion week.
A few notes. Mainly, as lowrey and I discussed, Jun's team is not doing a very good job at styling and shooting his lookbooks. Had I gotten my paws on this collection, I'm sure StyleZeitgeist magazine would've done a brilliant job of it.
Upsilon, the shirt is ok, but the same done as intarsia sweater (see stylezeitgeist instagram) is absolutely beautiful and is on my hit list.
