Gundam's official fashion brand, STRICT-G, has been a fan favorite, consistently teaming up with major Japanese and American brands to release a variety of apparel and goods.
Now, they've announced an exciting collaboration with the venerable fan maker, Nishikawa Shouroku Shoten, to launch a uniquely styled folding fan celebrating the 30th anniversary of "Mobile Suit Gundam Wing." Priced at 5,500 JPY, this must-have item is currently available for order on Japan's Premium Bandai website.
Founded in 1585, Nishikawa Shouroku Shoten is a traditional shop specializing in fans, renowned for its exquisite fabrics and craftsmanship. Back when Japan lacked a centralized logistics system, Nishikawa Shouroku Shoten operated as a "curated goods store," selling "specially selected items" across Japan, primarily from Osaka and Edo. Talk about a centuries-old trendsetter!
In recent years, to adapt to modern lifestyles, they've started creating innovative fans appealing to a younger generation, often collaborating with STRICT-G as a strategic move to tap into the youth market.
This stunning folding fan features the majestic "Wing Gundam Zero EW" from "Mobile Suit Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz" rendered in an elegant ink wash style. The design is incredibly sophisticated and powerful. The reverse side is solid black, adorned with the iconic angelic feather wings and the series title.
It even comes with an attached clip, making it super convenient and stylish to carry on your belt loop, backpack, or for staying cool during outdoor activities!
