gladgarb is a new brand and collaboration project launched in 2025 jointly by Laugh Valley, which operates glamb, and Bandai. It translates outfits and costumes from games and anime into everyday clothing through the streetwear design and pop culture interpretations developed by glamb. Since it has its own brand name, dedicated official website, and ongoing product releases spanning multiple works, rather than being the name of a one-off collaboration tied to a single work, it can be regarded as an independent offshoot line that expands glamb’s fashion business into IP collaborations.

Chronicle Collection is a revival line announced in 2026 to mark glamb’s 80th lookbook issue and the brand’s first 10 years. Nobuaki Kaneko, who had followed glamb since its early days, was appointed as supervisor and model, and items from the launch period and the brand’s first 10 years were selected and reconfigured. Unlike the regular collections, which focus mainly on new items from the current season, it serves as an official archive-oriented derivative line that presents separately the design assets developed during glamb’s formative years.
