Titled 'Year Of The Onitsuka Tiger', the launch is the first installation in a year-long project to commemorate the upcoming Chinese Zodiac year.&nbsp;

Ring in the new year with Onitsuka Tiger. An ode to the brand&rsquo;s icon and in celebration of the year of the Tiger, the first part of the project presents exquisite, intricately designed, contemporary-cool graphic illustrations by Japanese illustrator, Yasushi Nirasawa. Known as a genius of heteromorphy, the designs showcase creatures he sketched for the brand in his later years.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Two creatures are revealed in this collection &ndash; the Onitsuka Tiger Man in Blue and Red, each featuring patterns inspired by the Onitsuka Tiger Stripes. The Tiger Man in blue is dressed in a contrasting acid green stripe pattern, while the Tiger Man in Red displays a warmer, earth-toned, brown stripe motif.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Reflective of the courageous confident spirit of the Tiger, these edgy, statement prints make a powerful visual impact while providing a unique, striking burst of colour to any street style outfit.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Special touches like the brand name in full embroidery and Nirasawa's signature alongside his designs provide a luxe, bespoke, one-of-a-kind feel.&nbsp; &nbsp;

Keeping with the theme of artistic expression and powerful visuals, the brand has also commissioned figure modeller, Takayuki Takeya, to create a one-of-a-kind &ldquo;Onitsuka Tiger Man&rdquo; figure. Though it is not available for purchase, the model will be displayed at Onitsuka Tiger&rsquo;s flagship stores in Omotesando and other locations.&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;
