About the brand
Junya Watanabe joined Comme des Garcons in 1984 as a pattern cutter, straight out of Bunka Fashion College, and became Rei Kawakubo's closest protege: she gave him his own label under the CdG umbrella in 1992, and the MAN line followed in 2001. He has shown in Paris since 1993, and Comme des Garcons produces and distributes both lines.

Material
Cotton canvas upper with a suede collar overlay. Textile lining. Rubber toe cap and a blue-green rubber outsole.
Care guide
Spot clean the canvas with a barely damp cloth and mild soap, brush the suede dry. Keep the pair out of direct sun so the fade stays where it is, and store it dry.
