    Takashi Murakami will once more intertwine the world of fashion and art with his first solo dive into footwear.

    Dubbed the “Ohana Full-Bloom,” Takashi debuted his inaugural slide at ComplexCon Hong Kong this weekend.

    Murakami, celebrated for his profound impact at the nexus of contemporary art and high fashion, has previously collaborated with iconic brands and personalities such as Louis Vuitton, Kanye West, and Pharrell. His ventures across various mediums have consistently blurred the lines between art, fashion, and culture, announcing his foray into footwear a thrilling development for fans and collectors alike. However, it's important to note that while the slides will debut at ComplexCon, they will be showcased rather than released at the event.

    The “Ohana Full-Bloom” slides draw on Murakami's signature flower motif, a recurring theme in his work that embodies a blend of personal experiences and the rich tapestry of Japan’s cultural heritage. Through this motif, Murakami explores a spectrum of emotions, with happiness as the foundational ethos of the Ohana slide design. This artistic choice reinforces the seamless integration of Murakami's aesthetic vision into wearable art, offering a unique piece that transcends conventional footwear.

    Now, after an initial release at the ComplexCon event, a wider, online drop will take place on Complex on April 4th, 2024, at 9 am PT/Noon ET
