BRAND STORY / NEEDLES
Needles — Keizo Shimizu’s Deconstructed Vision: Redefining the "Butterfly" Legacy.
Founded in 1995 by Keizo Shimizu, the representative of Nepenthes. Building on the foundation of Nepenthes (est. 1988), Needles is the manifestation of Shimizu’s obsession with American vintage, military workwear, and Japanese craftsmanship. The iconic butterfly logo, inspired by the film Papillon, symbolizes a rebellious yet sophisticated spirit.
In 2010, the brand launched the "REBUILD by NEEDLES" capsule collection, focusing on the art of upcycling vintage garments into entirely new structural silhouettes. Meanwhile, the Needles Sportswear line—famed for its signature Track Suits—has become a global phenomenon, bridging the gap between retro athletic wear and high-fashion streetwear.
With a design vocabulary that spans Bohemian aesthetics, tactical utility, and Ivy League classics, Needles continues to challenge conventional fashion boundaries. It is not just a brand, but a continuous experiment where Shimizu explores the intersection of heritage textiles and modern avant-garde design.
