STRICT-G JAPAN Unveils Epic 'Mobile Suit Gundam Hathaway: Circe's Witch' Hanten Jackets Featuring Ξ Gundam & Penelope!

"STRICT-G," the official Gundam fashion brand, has a sub-label called "STRICT-G JAPAN" that consistently blends traditional Japanese culture and art into its apparel, offering consumers fresh, unique choices.

Following last year's collaboration with traditional Japanese apparel maker Miyata Orimono for two hanten jackets celebrating "Mobile Suit Gundam"'s 45th anniversary, the brand has just announced two new hanten jackets! These fresh designs are inspired by next year's upcoming film, "Mobile Suit Gundam Hathaway: Circe's Witch," and feature iconic mobile suits: the Ξ Gundam and Penelope. Both designs are available in standard and long-length versions, and are currently up for pre-order on Japan's Premium Bandai website.

Established in 1913, Miyata Orimono boasts over a century of history specializing in traditional Japanese apparel. Their artisans meticulously craft each garment, allowing wearers to experience the quality of a hundred years of craftsmanship, driven by a passion for creating the finest clothing for everyone.

This collection spotlights the most iconic mobile suits from "Mobile Suit Gundam Hathaway": the Ξ Gundam and Penelope. Each jacket features exquisite illustrations of the two MS, rendered in the signature "Uchuu-Ukiyo-e" series' traditional Japanese "brush painting" style, set against deep blue and black bases, respectively.

These hanten jackets have been given a modern refresh in terms of material, color, and silhouette. The classic hanten style, used for years, has been revised with a sharper cut below the cuffs, maintaining its traditional Japanese essence while adding a retro flair. Every piece is meticulously handcrafted in Miyata Orimono's own workshops in Japan. Both designs are also available in a long-length version, catering to different styling preferences.
