A baseball cap from Kenzo in black, the words Kenzo Paris set across the crown in white script. Made with the Japanese artist Verdy, in one size, near-unused.
The Piece
Kenzo was founded in Paris in 1970 by the Japanese designer Takada Kenzo, and the house has long drawn its energy from the meeting of Tokyo sensibility and Parisian ease. This cap comes from the house's collaboration with the Japanese artist Verdy, whose rounded, friendly lettering gives the Kenzo Paris name a new voice, softer and more playful than the old block logotype.
The cap is a classic six-panel baseball cap in black, with a gently curved peak and a high, structured crown. The name is worked in thick white contrast embroidery, raised against the black cloth and bold enough to read from across a street. At the back, a metal-toned slider with the Kenzo name sits on an adjustable strap, so the fit can be tuned to the wearer.
Inside the cap, the red Kenzo label and a size and care label with the maker's details are sewn in. The size is marked U, for unisex or one size, and no measurements were recorded; they will be supplied on request before purchase. Black on black with a white wordmark, it is an easy accessory to wear with almost anything, and a good way to carry the Tokyo-to-Paris story of the house at a modest scale.
