Needles Tops

Founded in 1997 by Keizo Shimizu, Needles clothing was one of the first brands under the Nepenthes umbrella - and it’s been redefining the menswear scene ever since. Instantly recognisable for its fusion of laid-back Americana and traditional Japanese tailoring, Needles made its mark from the start, with a loose-fitting suit jacket inspired by Miles Davis in the ’60s setting the tone for what was to come.

A go-to for elevated streetwear, Needles track pants and a Needles Track jacket are cult favourites thanks to their retro-sport edge. Whether its a Needles tracksuit or an iconic relaxed hoodie and sweatshirt, the brand continues to push boundaries while keeping things effortlessly wearable. For a smarter option, explore Needles pants and Needles cardigans - ideal for mixing into your everyday wardrobe.

Accessories haven’t been left behind either. Whether you're heading to a festival or just topping off your look, Needles bucket hats, belt bags, and beanies serve both style and function. And of course, most of them are finished with the unmistakable Papillon (butterfly) logo, a nod to transformation and a marker of Needles’ identity.
