BEAMS and Arc’teryx continue to work together as the two brands have been in alliance for over twenty years. BEAMS was the first Japanese retailer that offered products from the Canadian brand and has since been creating impressive limited capsules.
The two continue once again and the new range is led by the Beta SL Jacket at the core -- it is reimagined in various shades of light brown and contrasted with white on the shoulder. The colors are inspired by ancient Japanese spirituality according to BEAMS -- it nods to the philosophy of Nagomi. The outerwear is joined by a matching backpack and a crossbody bag for its accessory line up -- it comes in a blend of white, brown, and orange patchwork detail.
