Below the graphic, the bold statement "WE MAKE PROGRESS NOT CLOTHES" reinforces the brand's ethos. Available in black and white colorways, the tee features contrasting graphics and includes a gold SIWILAI signature logo on the right sleeve, along with co-branding details on the back. The UNDERCOVER x SIWILAI capsule collection releases today at the SIWILAI store in Bangkok, with a retail price of ฿3,690 THB (approximately $100 USD).

Jun Takahashi 's UNDERCOVER and Kosuke Kawamura have collaborated on a collection of intricately "shredded" apparel. The collection features outerwear, jackets, long-sleeves, and t-shirts with Kawamura's mangled design technique, creating a torn-up finish. Teddy bear motifs, a screaming woman, and kaleidoscopic abstracts are coated onto zip-up jackets, with glossy panels providing contrasting three-dimensional finishes. Hooded parkas showcase trippy artwork on the back and simple iconography on the front. Collared bombers feature columnar iterations of the collaboration's key imagery, while crewneck sweaters highlight the designs in black, white, and red. The collection also includes t-shirts with the same illustrations. The collection will be available online and at UNDERCOVER's stores from September 23, with a lottery for "ONE OFF" pieces at the Aoyama store.
