Japanese craftsmanship, American attitude, Keizo Shimizu’s Needles has been carving out its own lane in the world of Americana since the nineties. The brand is a projection of Shimizu’s own interest in American culture and Ivy League style, cultivated as he flipped through the pages of a “Made in USA” catalog during his childhood. Operating under the Nepenthes umbrella, Needles is all about making something completely new from something that already exists; it’s referential, but always original.
Look out for the brand’s iconic sportswear styles in our women’s Needles collection, including Needles track tops and Needles tracksuit pants, all detailed with the customary embroidered butterfly logo, inspired by Steve McQueen’s tattoo in the film Papillon. You’ll also find pieces from Rebuild by Needles, including 7 Cuts shirts and T-shirts which are formed from spliced up vintage pieces in clashing patterns and colours. To round things off, Needles mohair cardigans, cargo trousers and accessories bring together rugged workwear, breezy bohemian prints, and Japanese precision in a way that feels nostalgic yet totally fresh.
Whether it’s reworking vintage finds into something brand-new or adding an unexpected twist to heritage silhouettes, Needles thrives on the beauty of contrast and revival. Find your style at END. today.
