Before design, before definition, there is intention. Two distinct Japanese and Italian approaches to clothing converge in an all-black, eight-piece wardrobe built around fabric, proportion and the poetry of use.
Some collaborations trade in logos. Ten c and COMOLI trade in something far more interesting: the clothes themselves.
Unveiled in Tokyo on October 23, the first collaboration between the Italian outerwear specialist, part of Enzo Fusco’s FGF Industry Group, and Keijiro Komori’s Japanese label COMOLI strips fashion back to its material core. Eight pieces. One color. No unnecessary noise.
Ten c’s dense Original Japanese Jersey (OJJ) meets COMOLI’s signature cotton flannel, alongside crinkled ripstop nylon, satin and brushed stretch wool. A Hooded Coat layers 11 oz OJJ with flannel; reversible jackets and pants blur the line between inside and outside. Construction becomes expression. Function becomes instinct.
The lineup moves through Field Jacket, Reversible Jacket, Reversible Track Jacket, Liner, Hooded Coat, Knit, Knit Pants and Reversible Pants. Everything arrives in black, leaving texture, volume and movement to do the talking. Ten c brings its material-driven approach and a belief in garments that evolve through wear. COMOLI brings relaxed proportions and a sensitivity to fabric that makes imperfection feel intentional.
The result is less a collision of brand identities than a quiet refusal to play by fashion’s usual rules. No loud signatures. No manufactured spectacle. Just clothes designed to acquire meaning over time.
BEFORE DESIGN, BEFORE DEFINITION, THERE IS INTENTION.
The collection debuts at COMOLI Tokyo on October 23, followed by an exclusive release at COMOLI’s Tokyo and Matsumoto stores on October 24. International availability begins October 26 through selected retailers and Ten c’s official online store.
