Produced under the Comme des Garçons umbrella, Comme des Garçons Ganryu is part of the company’s growing stable of edgy labels. Designed by Fumito Ganryu, a former pattern maker at fellow CDG label Junya Watanabe, this unisex line is known for its youthful street style. But there’s nothing Harajuku about it – instead Ganryu updates traditional elements of streetwear from trucker caps to hoodies with a cool, fun look.
i had to look it up as i was not sure what this was...
i guess it passed me by because it's menswear and because they haven't shown in two years- since 2009- if i am correct...
you can see the junya in his past with the patchwork shirts...
which is a good thing in my opinion...
i guess that with tao's own collection gone, there is room again for this?
maybe that's why they are showing again finally?
i don't know, that's just a guess...
i find this interesting...
it's preppy meets activewear meets funky japanese asymmetrical silhouettes...
i'd say the shirts and jackets are where they will make the bulk of their sales...
and the rest is really fun and innovative...
silly without being stupid...
thanks runner...
fun stuff!

i love the oversized knitwear and the colour palette! Thanks for posting!
Doesn't he makes womenswear as well?
it seems they make showroom presentations for lookbooks of all their lines quite often(always?)... the tricot, homme and comme comme line. unfortunately not all visible for the public.

when i was in paris it was described to me as "very street",
but that was in 2008 i think.
you saw the grey caped hoodie i have from him, but may not remember.
