CHAMPION Reverse Weave ’25FW

We are back again with our bespoke Champion Reverse Weave collection. This season, our FW lineup is ready to drop.

The highlight of this collection is a triple collaboration between CHAMPION, NITTO, and Circles!

Thanks to NITTO’s kindness, we were able to create these using their official logo (thank you so much as always!).

NITTO Collage Logo

First, the crewneck. It features a classic collegiate style with the NITTO logo in NITTO blue. Honestly, it looks incredible. It uses a "vintage fit," which gives it that wide and short silhouette.

The rubber print really makes it stand out.

Color : Natural × Blue
Size : M,L,XL
Material : Cotton 100%
Price : 17,600 yen (tax included)

NITTO Classic Logo Zip Hoodie

Next is the Zip Hoodie—a style we haven't done before. It’s perfect for the changing seasons and great for regulating your temperature while cycling. Plus, it seems the style is making a revival in the fashion world. I haven't seen them around much lately, but it feels fresh again.

For this one, we went with a simple navy body and the current logo in official NITTO colors.

Of course, all these collaboration items feature the iconic "C" mark. Combined with the long-ribbed sleeves, you know it’s the real deal.

This item also features the vintage fit, but true to vintage standards, it has a slightly slimmer silhouette than the crewneck.

Color : Navy x Blue
Size : M,L,XL
Material : Cotton 100%
Price : 19,800 yen (tax included)


NITTO Kanji Logo Zip Hoodie

And another one: the "Nitto" (Japanese Kanji) logo.

We were granted permission to use the official "日東" logo written in Japanese.

It’s rare to see Japanese text on a Champion Reverse Weave collaboration.

It might be hard to tell from the photos, but the "日東" logo is made with felt appliqué, giving it a 3D effect that really pops.

I’m biased, but this looks really cool.

Once again, I got to be a bit selfish with my requests, and I'm so happy with how they turned out. 🙏

And we have more graphics as well.

Circles Bicycle States

Our ever-popular "Circles Bicycle States" collection.

After selling out, it's back in stock with the favorite colors plus a new one.

Truth be told, the English on this one is a bit quirky, but we think that’s part of the charm.

The Natural × Purple is refreshingly nice.

Pair it with RAL Jeans for that Shibuya-kei look from back in the day.

Burgundy × White. Personally, this is my favorite among the authentic Champion colors. It’s never been the biggest seller, so I had put it on ice, but I couldn't resist bringing it back this time.

It’s so good. I love this slightly trimmer fit the best. (Ishii is wearing size M at 175cm; he’s wearing size L for the purple one.)

I’ll be wearing this one, and I hope you all will too!

We also have the classic heather grey and our corporate green back in stock through a repeat production run.

I'm thrilled to have such a special variety of options this autumn/winter.

Bonus info

Oh, right—here’s a little background on the Champion Reverse Weave.

What is Reverse Weave?

It’s a sweatshirt manufacturing method developed by Champion. With the technology available at the time, cotton garments inevitably shrank vertically due to the fabric's properties (which is why many old American vintage pieces are short).


To solve this, they developed a technique of inserting fabric panels on both sides to prevent vertical shrinkage.

Beyond solving the problem, this detail gave the garments a unique design and a signature silhouette.

It is a great example of problem-solving evolving into design. It is truly a case of "form follows function."



So, it’s a historically significant product. We also modeled the details after the 70s, which is why it features the "blue tag."

These are items I hold very dear, and I’m always so happy to be able to collaborate on them. Thank you so much.
