“Rurouni Kenshin: Meiji Swordsman Romantic Story” collaborates with a fashion brand SuperGroupies. Pre-orders of two apparel items are currently being accepted.
“Rurouni Kenshin: Meiji Swordsman Romantic Story” is a masterpiece that has been adapted into animated films and other various media. The line-up includes a top and bag inspired by ‘Himura Kenshin’, a wonderer.
Reversible Haori is filled with the true nature of ‘Himura Kenshin’, who has overcome his past, and is living a new life.
The front is based on the design on ‘Himura Kenshin’ as a wonderer. A scar on Kenshin’s cheek is boldly designed with dye on the back shoulder, with maroon as a base color just like Kenshin’s Kimono. The lining is inspired by the dark indigo Kimono, which he was wearing when he was living in Bakumatsu with all his energy as ‘Himura Battosai’.
Sling Bag simply recreates Haimura Kenshin’s past and present. This item recreates Kenshin’s style as a wonderer as it enables you to use it with your both hands free.
The pattern on the strap is inspired by the blade, and the belt and buckle on the front pocket are reminiscent of ‘Sakabato’ and ‘guard of Sakabato’.
The ‘first scar on cheek’ is embroidered on the flap, and it makes ‘Cross-Shaped Scar’ with another scar on the pocket by closing the flap, which is must-see for fans.
Pre-orders for the “Rurouni Kenshin: Meiji Swordsman Romantic Story” collaboration top and bag is accepted on SuperGroupies until May 31, 2021.
