The most important point of the collaboration with Haven was that we both own stores in Nakameguro, Tokyo, while they are located in Canada. Actually, I am not usually very enthusiastic about collaborations, but if I have a hunch that it will show me a world I don't know, I will gladly do it.
In this interview, Mr. Kobayashi reveals his true feelings, and explains how he started "Mountain Research" and the backbone of this collection. It is quite a worthwhile read, so be sure to take a moment during a break from your remote work to read it.

The collaboration, which transcends national borders, will go on sale on Friday, April 3. In addition to global sales through Haven's online store, the collection will be available in Japan at the . Research GENERAL STORE () and the online select store COVERCHORD.
