{"product_id":"takashi-murakami-x-saint-mxxxxxx-cherry-blossom-varsity-jacket","title":"Chaqueta varsity Takashi Murakami × Saint Mxxxxxx Cherry Blossom Flower Smile, lana rosa y piel blanca, talla S","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"jp-product\" data-world=\"Maison × Artist Collaborations\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"jp-lede\"\u003eTakashi Murakami's smiling flower, multiplied in dense embroidery across a pink wool varsity jacket with white leather sleeves. Made with Saint Mxxxxxx, the collaboration rebuilds an American collegiate archetype as a carrier of contemporary art, and this example is offered unused.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Piece\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe jacket sets Murakami's iconic flower motif within the structured framework of a classic American-inspired varsity silhouette. Executed in pink wool with contrasting white leather sleeves, it departs from traditional varsity design through extensive embroidered floral elements, turning the surface into a dense field of repeated symbols. It is the high-density embroidered variant within the collaboration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe smiling flower is one of Murakami's most enduring symbols, cheerful on the surface yet often read as a comment on emotional commodification and surface-level happiness. Multiplied, scaled and distributed across the body, it becomes a chorus of identical emotional signals, and the pink base, usually associated with softness, turns assertive at full-garment scale. The white leather sleeves ground the composition and keep the varsity silhouette recognizable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTechnically the varsity format is preserved: a wool body for weight and insulation, leather sleeves for durability and contrast, ribbed cuffs and hem for structure. High-density embroidery across chest and body, however, turns the cloth into something closer to a semi-rigid surface, changing how the jacket drapes, reflects light and occupies space, so that it behaves as much as a mobile display object as outerwear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSaint Mxxxxxx works within the long Japanese reinterpretation of American heritage garments, with a design language rooted in distress, reconstruction and Americana and drawn from READYMADE's ethos of recontextualization. Murakami's involvement reframes the varsity jacket, long a symbol of collegiate achievement and belonging, within a global dialogue between fashion, streetwear and contemporary art.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDetails\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"jp-details\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaker:\u003c\/strong\u003e Saint Mxxxxxx × Takashi Murakami\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLine:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cherry Blossom “Flower Smile” varsity jacket, high-density embroidered variant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pink wool body; white leather sleeves; ribbed cuffs and hem; multi-point embroidery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pink with white sleeves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e S\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"jp-grade\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJaponista grade S\u003c\/strong\u003e · Unworn or as new, complete with original packaging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnused collector's example.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAuthenticity \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery piece is examined and documented in Japan before dispatch and is offered with the Japonista authenticity guarantee.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eDelivery from Japan\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePacked by hand in Japan and shipped insured and tracked by EMS or an equivalent express service.
