BEAMS JAPAN Collaborates with Local Enterprises for Nagoya Exhibition 2025
BEAMS JAPAN is set to launch the 2025 Nagoya Exhibition starting August 1, 2025, at its stores in Shinjuku and Nagoya. This initiative features a collaboration with nine local companies, organizations, and sports teams that are loved by the Nagoya and Aichi residents. This marks the sixth iteration of the project, aiming to promote the local charm of Nagoya and Aichi through various products and events.
One of this year's highlights includes the co-created merchandise featuring Guransu-kun and Doala, the mascots of Nagoya Grampus, along with several reuse events that will take place throughout the exhibition period. These efforts are not only designed to inspire civic pride among local residents but also to attract visitors from outside the region to experience Nagoya and Aichi's vibrant culture firsthand.
In conjunction with the exhibition, BEAMS JAPAN continues its partnership with the Nagoya Grampus, specifically with their event called “Shachihoko Festival.” This event will feature uniquely designed commemorative uniforms bearing bold adaptations of traditional Ichimatsu patterns, representing the spirit of Nagoya and Aichi—“Kabuke!” (Embrace the Spirit!). These uniforms will be worn by players during select matches, and attendees will receive replica jerseys as souvenirs.
