Of course, like we expect, Onitsuka Tiger is bringing the original logo and designs of Astro Boy onto its extensive lineup. It's also a complete win for dressing light. Most folks will agree that they could live in their casuals forever and this collection definitely flatters that premise. One of the key pieces in this lineup is the red sweat hoodie with its relaxed silhouette.

Other elements also include more hoodies and T-shirts based on the characteristic red and gray colours of "Astro Boy," with a vintage feel achieved through distressing. There are washed sweat tops, graphic tees, washed polo shirts, backpacks, shoulder bags, hats and caps. These are highlighted by the contrast of Onitsuka Tiger's signature mode yellow, with details such as the boots that Astro Boy wears and drawstrings.
Across segments, Astro Boy has firmly gained its spot as an iconic ambassador of pop culture in Japan. And Japanese fashion and footwear brand Onitsuka has been a forerunner in showcasing the country’s design, culture and tradition and this collaboration makes the case for it so well.
