Comme des Garçons SHIRT is a men’s ready-to-wear line by Rei Kawakubo, established in 1988 as the first Comme des Garçons collection developed through Comme des Garçons Paris.
Designed in Tokyo and primarily produced in France, the line centres on the reinvention of the shirt, positioning it within avant-garde fashion and conceptual fashion while remaining accessible within high-end ready-to-wear.
The collection has expanded beyond shirting into t-shirts, knitwear, outerwear, pants, accessories, and footwear, maintaining a consistent looser fit that defines its approach to contemporary designer fashion and luxury menswear.
Signature elements include patchwork shirts constructed from classic shirting fabrics such as cotton poplin, stripes, and gingham, reinforcing the brand’s exploration of experimental tailoring and proportion.
The SHIRT FOREVER line offers a permanent selection of men’s designer shirts across multiple fits, from wide to slim, alongside luxury basics including classic t-shirts and underwear produced by Sunspel.
This continuity supports a modular wardrobe grounded in black designer clothing and everyday structure.
Collaborations are central to Comme des Garçons SHIRT, spanning long-term partnerships such as Fred Perry and projects with Spalwart, ASICS, Supreme, Chrome Hearts, and Visvim, extending into footwear, outerwear, and accessories.
The line also integrates artist collaborations, featuring works from Jean-Michel Basquiat, Star Wars, Kaws, and Futura, reinforcing its position within high fashion as a platform for graphic and cultural exchange.
