Signature Item: The Japanorak

This favorite among hardcore Polo collectors was given a reissue, thanks to BEAMS Plus. The Japanese label included this grail in its collab with Polo Ralph Lauren. It was the first time it had ever been given a re-release since debuting exclusively in Japan in 2010.

While a brand like Polo can never die, there is no denying that it is scorching hot again. The Japanorak is one of the big reasons why.

While most people were focused on the well-executed Air Jordan 3s, the latest linkup between Levi’s and Jordan Brand also delivered some great apparel. The standout items were a faded zip hoodie complete with double zips and a varsity jacket covered in a series of patches that alluded to the deep history of both brands. They even got Spike Lee for the campaign. Every aspect of this one was great.

Signature Item: Box Logo Zip Hoodie

Supreme usually hits a home run when it works with a luxury brand. Its partnership with MM6 Maison Margiela is a prime example. The first installment came in 2024, and the two labels ran it back in 2026. Patchwork caps and money print Timbs were a hot commodity, but the real star of the show was the first-ever Box Logo zip hoodie. It’s not just one of the greatest Supreme piece of the 2020s, but might also be one of the brand’s best BOGOs of all time.

Signature Item: Clown Zip-Up

Usually, Akimbo Club strays away logos and graphics. The Utah-based brand has become known for its well-executed essentials like zip hoodies and sweats. So, it took us a bit by surprise when Akimbo announced a concise collection with UK artist Slawn.

Slawn applied his signature art style to a series of all-over print hoodies. While he’s made some waves with his bootleg collaborations in the past, this one was the real deal.

Signature Item: Daicock Print Selvedge Jeans

John Geiger has applied his “Misplaced” style to everything from custom Air Force 1s to official WWE T-shirts over the years. To mark the 2026 NFL Draft in his home city of Pittsburgh, he brought his designs to the NFL. The limited release of New Era fitteds incorporated modern and retro team logos that sold out with ease. Some of them were even flipping for hundreds of dollars on the aftermarket upon release. Once again, Geiger proved that he knows how to make product that the streetwear community wants.

Signature Item: “Finger Waves” New Balance 1890

Joe Freshgoods is arguably streetwear’s best storyteller. For his latest New Balance release, he channeled iconic hip-hop videos of the ‘90s like Busta Rhymes and Janet Jackson’s “What’s It Gonna Be” for a series of bright orange and purple 1890s complimented by matching apparel. It got weird.
