In 1997, Keizo Shimizu launched the brand Needles out of Japan. The idea was to reimagine classic American silhouettes in eccentric and exciting new fabrics: his first-ever piece took inspiration from a suit jacket Miles Davis was known to wear in the ’60s.
Since then, the brand has grown to international fame and captured the attention of style stars the world over. Take, for instance, A$AP Rocky, whose AWGE collective partnered with Needles in 2018 and 2019 on two separate tracksuit collections. Imagine loungewear that looks good in public. That’s the vibe.
For clothes that feel familiar at first glance then flipped on their head by the second one, Needles is the brand to watch. That’s why whenever its items go on sale, we’re sure to pay attention. This week, our attention has been focused on SSENSE and MATCHESFASHION whose sales include serious Needles fire. From track pants to jackets, shirts, bucket hats, bags, and even some shoe options, if you’re looking to get your hands on Needles on sale, look no further.
