]]> The Fall/Winter 2025 collection from Junya Watanabe MAN pays tribute to the rugged outdoorsman with a modern twist. With collaborations from Levi’s, New Balance, Filson, and more, the collection blends masculinity and sophistication, evoking the spirit of the lumberjack while introducing urban-inspired designs.

Plaid and Workwear

Plaid is at the heart of this collection, where traditional patterns like buffalo plaid and Prince of Wales check are reinterpreted into modern workwear staples. The rugged aesthetic is punctuated by the following:

  • Levi’s denim jeans paired with plaid shirts
  • Canvas chore jackets and buffalo plaid outerwear
  • Cowboy hats and bearded models walking the runway

These pieces channel the hyper-masculine image of the outdoorsy worker while introducing dandy silhouettes with leather trench coats and militant jackets.

Collaborative Elements

The collection’s outdoor influences are amplified with a series of high-profile collaborations, including:

  • Filson strap duffels to complement the outdoorsman look
  • New Balance 471s in navy, making their world debut
  • Boat shoes, loafers, and trail boots alongside the standout Levi’s denim jeans

These collaborations bring together functional style with urban flair, appealing to those who embrace both nature and city life.

A Nod to North American Workwear

Designed for the sophisticated outdoor worker, the collection strikes a balance between ruggedness and refinement. Models evoke a North American logging worker aesthetic while incorporating elements of hipster culture, presenting an idealized masculine look that appeals to both the working man and the fashion-forward.
