Designer: Eiji Sasaki, starting with 2022-23AW.

Focusing on its main product, pants, the brand creates its own unique scene based on various designs, including military, work, and outdoor styles.

The products they create are powerful, innovative and approach existing categories with a new perspective based on their past experiences. They also exude an elegant charm with a sophisticated elegance.

Gurank is a coined word that combines words from the core of craftsmanship: functional beauty (K.)/design, folk tools (G.)/things used daily, customs (NA)/things that have been accumulated and established, splendor (R.)/beauty, and gloss (U.)/sexiness. We propose something a little new, based on the designer's experience, without specifying a country or era.

"Gurank" is a new brand we will be carrying from 25AW.
The designer, Sasaki-san, is from Hanamaki city, Iwate prefecture. There aren't many designers from Iwate prefecture, so I'm happy to hear this.

We create completely new items by referencing various archives, including military and workwear.
Although the brand is known for its pants, we will have a variety of items in stock for AW25, so please look forward to it.

This time we have one type of pants in stock.

These pants are called LM flight pants. LM stands for light moleskin. Light moleskin is an unfamiliar fabric. When you think of moleskin, you may imagine a thick, sturdy European work fabric, but light moleskin is completely different.

This moleskin is made from fine yarn, resulting in a thin, lustrous fabric.
In terms of thickness, it's about the same as a slightly thick shirt fabric.

The brushed texture gives it a glossy look, and it's incredibly comfortable to wear.
Although they are available for autumn and winter, they are also perfect for midsummer. Perfect for those who don't wear shorts.

Of course, the material can be worn any time except in the dead of winter, so it seems like it would be useful all year round.

It's made of moleskin, so it's a strong yet thin fabric, but you can wear it and wash it repeatedly and wear it hard.

It comes in two colors, khaki and navy. Both colors are easy to match and versatile.
I'm especially looking forward to seeing how the navy color ages with repeated washing.

The shape is military-inspired, with a single pleat and a wide silhouette. The side pockets are zip-up, and the knees and hips are reinforced with patches. The hem can be adjusted with a drawstring, so it can be worn with sandals.

That's all for now. These pants are comfortable to wear and perfect for immediate use. They look like they'll help you move around quickly.

Please try it.
