Onitsuka Tiger presented its Fall Winter 2026 collection during Milan Fashion Week under the theme The Aesthetics of Ma. The concept of Ma originates from Japanese cultural thought and describes the charged space that exists between elements, whether in time or physical distance. This idea frames dressing as a practice shaped through pause and tension. The collection reflects clothing that exists outside strict categories tied to occasion or routine, allowing the wearer’s presence and interpretation to define its meaning.
FALL WINTER 2026
The runway introduced combinations that drew from multiple wardrobes. Formalwear, casualwear, workwear, and sportswear appeared together in layered compositions. A dress marked by horizontal bands paired with an oversized herringbone hoodie, creating contrast through proportion and texture. An apple-green pleated dress appeared beneath a compact corduroy vest bonded with boa and fitted with oversized pockets.
Other looks emphasized material variation and layered construction. A lightweight cotton checked blouse with floral inserts appeared alongside an ochre-yellow midi skirt made from feather-effect fabric, finished with a sky-blue bow at the waist. Another look featured an apple-green fleece layered over a candy-pink blouse tied at the neck, styled with a knitted mini skirt that included patch pockets. Each composition balanced softness, color, and structural detail through deliberate layering.
A long military-inspired double-breasted coat featured a defined collar and contrast buttons, styled with high-top sneakers that grounded the silhouette. A coordinated olive-green set combined a double-breasted blazer with a short pleated skirt, worn over a floral checked shirt with ruffled detail.
Menswear followed the same direction. An off-white fleece jacket hand-embroidered with flowers paired with a lightweight shirt and soft khaki five-pocket trousers. This combination reflected a relaxed approach shaped through material contrast and hand-applied surface detail.
Footwear included new designs led by the debut of the MEXICO 66 SQUARE, a slim silhouette with a flat-focused structure based on the original MEXICO 66. This release marks the 60th anniversary of the Onitsuka Tiger Stripes. The model appears in lizard-print finishes, floral versions, and solid color options. Two slingback heels extend the footwear offering. One design features a pointed form with a leather fold-over flap and belt detail, while another incorporates the Onitsuka Tiger Stripes into its construction.
A compact rectangular crossbody bag appears with studded detailing and a vertical strap closure. A series of detachable charms accompanies the bags and belts fitted with attachment rings. These include colorful bows, miniature earphone pouches, lipstick holders, and eyewear cases, allowing wearers to alter and personalize their accessories.
The show space incorporated a collaboration with the Japanese beauty brand ReFa. Guests received the ReFa HEART BRUSH, presented in Onitsuka Tiger Yellow. Through The Aesthetics of Ma, Onitsuka Tiger presented a collection defined by layered uniforms, new footwear, and adaptable accessories shaped by tension, pause, and interpretation.
