Our Paul Smith collaboration launched in Japan last week, with an exciting opening at the beautiful Paul Smith shop in Kyoto, before it heads on to Osaka, Nagoya and Tokyo. Sir Paul himself dropped in to greet a select few friends and customers lucky enough to get an invite, and to discuss design principles with Jake, and well as their shared love for Japan. He even did a spot of rabbit topiary!

Working together on the range, we’ve pooled our respective skills to come up with a set of tools that are fun, stylish and, most importantly, highly functional. United by a playful colour palette, the four pieces form a highly collectible set while also standing alone as serious tools in their own right.

Available exclusively at niwaki.co.jp and paulsmith.co.jp and in Paul Smith stores across Japan.
