Turning “errors” into design.
ISSUETHINGS is a unisex fashion brand established in Japan in 2020 by designer Shinji Watanabe. Combining the experimental nature of contemporary art with fashion, it develops garments centered on military influences and incorporating elements of grunge, streetwear, and classic style. At its core is an approach of making each garment with care, identifying unexpected distortions and production errors that arise in the process, and transforming them into design. Through sampling vintage clothing and military garments, as well as processing and construction techniques, the brand proposes contemporary, practical products.
