Junya Watanabe x Pendleton Fall/Winter 2009 Shirts

Perfectly fitting the Fall/Winter 2009 hunting and fishing inspired collection, Japanese designer Junya Watanabe worked with Pendleton on some shirts for this season. Using similar patching techniques and materials, the shirts turned out very interesting. Leather and corduroy patches are placed on the plaid wool by Pendleton, making each piece stand out of the crowd. These are certainly not your standard plaid shirts, unfortunately you can also expect according pricing.

Mackdaddy also introduces more footwear this season, along with outerwear, knitwear and accessories, making for an overall complete collection.
