"MOONRAKERS" and "Nihonbashi"

We are pleased to announce that Nishida, the representative of "MOONRAKERS," was interviewed by "Bridgine," a web media that reports on new challenges and collaborations emerging from Nihonbashi, a city of exchange!

 

Nihonbashi prospered as the hub of the Five Routes.
It is a historic town where people, goods, and ideas from all over Japan gathered, met, and connected, giving birth to new cultures and industries.

And both our "MOONRAKERS" office and showroom are in Nihonbashi.
Nihonbashi is truly our base.

~ Innovating the way clothes are made from Nihonbashi ~

In the Edo period, Mitsui Echigoya, the origin of our Toray Group, started "fixed-price, no haggle" sales of kimono fabric here in Nihonbashi, which was the latest system for kimono sales at the time.
We want to inherit this tradition and challenge ourselves to create "future fashion" from Nihonbashi.

And both our "MOONRAKERS" office and showroom are in Nihonbashi.
Nihonbashi is truly our base.

Thank you for always supporting the "MOONRAKERS" project.

We are excited to announce the collaboration product "MOON-TECH® OVERSIZE TEE" with the fashion brand "MNMM," which develops products with the theme of "minimalist clothing."

It was launched in mid-July on our online store and was so popular that it sold out instantly, but it has now been restocked!

The oversized box silhouette, which is not available in "MOONRAKERS" basic T-shirts, allows you to enjoy a relaxed and well-balanced coordination even with a simple outfit.

This is all I need. An unbeatable setup.

We, "MOONRAKERS," have launched a collaborative project with "O0u," a sustainable D2C brand from Adorelink Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Adastria Co., Ltd., which owns "Global Work," "niko and...", "LOWRYS FARM," and other brands. As the first product of this collaboration, we are releasing "The DARKSIDE of MOON-TECH®."

"The DARKSIDE of MOON-TECH®" is a beautiful product based on "MOON-TECH®," our latest advanced material equipped with space technology, incorporating the "joy of fashion" of "O0u" into a minimalist and basic style, using the reverse side (dark side) of "MOON-TECH®" with its unique texture and high color development.

First, we will launch a special campaign on the crowdfunding site "CAMPFIRE" at 12:00 on Friday, September 15th, along with text detailing the collaboration story!

In addition, sales of the product will also start simultaneously on the "O0u" official website at the regular price, and these orders will be delivered quickly.

"O0u" and "MOONRAKERS."

They are "twin brothers" who both question the existing norms of the fashion business and aim for transformation.

What is the ideal "way clothes should be" in this era of abundance?
What is the ideal "form of the fashion business"?

Since we first met, we have been talking tirelessly. And we continue to do so.

We hope you will take a look at our aspirations.

Thank you for your continued support of MOONRAKERS.

Thanks to the many requests we have received, we are now able to undertake a variety of projects that "transform the present into the future." These all began with your support. We deeply appreciate it once again.

We will be launching this project on Makuake tomorrow, September 6 (Wednesday), at 12:00 PM JST.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your support.

Amid frequent stockouts in e-commerce, the "MOON-TECH®" special campaign on "CAMPFIRE" was an attempt to ensure reliable delivery to all those who needed it.

We received support from far more people than we imagined, and all 1000 returns we prepared sold out.
We extend our deepest gratitude for the expectations, support, and encouragement we received from so many people.

▶CAMPFIRE"MOON-TECH®" Special Campaign

We will continue to aim for the creation of "future fashion" by producing only the necessary quantities, without conducting sales that disappoint customers or environmentally harmful disposals that should be eliminated.

Although the CAMPFIRE campaign has ended, at the "MOONRAKES Official Website" and "Tokyo Nihonbashi Showroom," we are currently working to ensure timely replenishment of out-of-stock items.

While the accuracy is still low and stockouts are occurring, we will do our best to respond to your feedback, so please feel free to contact us with any requests you may have.

ELNEST MOON TEE Restock Notification


The "ELNEST MOON TEE" is a collaboration T-shirt with the outdoor brand "ELNEST CREATIVE ACTIVITY" (hereinafter ELNEST), directed by actor Arata Iura, which received a great response when it was restocked in May.

It sold out immediately after its release, and we received many requests for a restock. Thanks to the prompt cooperation of the factory, we are pleased to announce that restock sales began today, August 1st (Friday)!

This is all thanks to your support. We express our sincere gratitude.

 

This time, it is also available in four colors: KHAKI, BLACK, WHITE, and GRAY, which are easy to use for both outdoor activities and town use. All colors feature a striking blue rubber logo on the chest, and the subtle accent is very popular.

Last summer, CAMP HACK, one of Japan's largest outdoor web magazines, introduced it as "a versatile color that is easy to use in both the city and the field, and ultra-comfortable specifications that are great for the outdoors." We are very pleased that it was praised as an "invincible shirt" in outdoor settings.

Please check out the article here ▼



This product is currently available at both "ELNEST" and "MOONRAKERS," and has been well-received by both brands. We would like to express our gratitude once again for the many warm messages.

Following the T-shirt, we plan to release new collaboration items with "ELNEST" in the future!

We are preparing to deliver exciting products to everyone again next time, so we hope you will continue to look forward to our collaboration.

Announcement of General Sale for "MOONTECH® Nature" T-shirt

The new product "Invincible Evolving T-shirt | MOON-TECH® nature", an evolution of "MOON-TECH®", will finally be available for general sale on our online shop from 12:00 on Tuesday, July 29th!

 

In the Makuake project implemented in May of this year, more than 2,300 pieces prepared were sold out in just about two weeks. We would like to express our sincere gratitude for everyone's support.

We received many requests at the showroom exhibition saying, "We want it soon!" and we are truly delighted to finally be able to deliver it to everyone.

The sporty material is also appealing, but...
"I want to wear it with a more natural feel"
"I want a light and refreshing comfort that I can wear smoothly in midsummer"
To meet these demands, we have repeatedly made improvements, utilizing Japan's proud advanced technology.


The overwhelming comfort and toughness of "MOON-TECH®" remain, yet it has a natural feel that is hard to believe it's a synthetic fiber.

While having a high-quality and simple design, it looks beautiful even when worn alone, achieving a light and comfortable fit to the body. It's refreshing even in the recent scorching summers, suppresses odors, sweat stains, and stickiness, and is excellent in quick-drying, stain-proofing, and wrinkle-resistance, making it tough and long-lasting.

Isn't a future T-shirt surely something like this?

This "MOON-TECH® nature" was manufactured by Toray, which provides the material, Mitsukawa (Echizen City, Fukui Prefecture), which handles knitting, Komatsu Matere (Komatsu City, Ishikawa Prefecture), which handles dyeing, and Apparel Ota (Minamishimabara City, Nagasaki Prefecture), which handles sewing, each contributing their proud Japanese technology.

It is a special Made-in-Japan product, with all fabrics and sewing done in Japan, completed by bringing together the aspirations of all those involved.

Your support will be the power to connect Japanese manufacturing to the future. We will certainly connect your voices to that great power.

This is the form of our new challenge, advanced together with you.

We hope you will all take a look.

Product Hang Tag Specification Change Notification

Thank you always for your great support.
We would like to inform you that we have changed the specifications of the hangtags for our products.

To reduce unnecessary auxiliary materials, streamline production processes, and shorten the lead time until products reach you, we have abolished the conventional paper hangtags and changed the specification to applying labels on the packaging. This change has led to the following improvements:


・Reduced auxiliary materials (hangtag attachment tape, ties, paper hangtags for products), resulting in waste-free packaging.

・Reduced workload at sewing factories and improved production efficiency.

・Eliminated the preparation period for auxiliary materials, shortening the time until product delivery.



~How the change will be implemented~

Starting with products manufactured from mid-July, we are progressively transitioning to the new specifications, SKU by SKU (management units by color and size), as existing stock runs out.
For a while, there will be a transition period where old and new specifications coexist, but please be assured that the product itself remains unchanged.

Until all products have been switched over, there will be a mix of products with hangtags and products with labels on their packaging without hangtags. We kindly ask for your understanding that this is part of our process to improve operations and deliver products more efficiently.

Thank you for your continued support.

"Ripple Fisher x MOONRAKERS" To all who love fishing

Today, we are excited to announce the launch of our first collaboration with Ripple Fisher, a high-end Japanese fishing rod brand. The "RF MOON-TECH® T-shirts," developed for all fishing enthusiasts, are now available on our online store!

 

"Ripple Fisher" is an excellent rod manufacturer based in Kumamoto Prefecture, producing high-quality, Made-in-Japan fishing rods. Their lure fishing rods, in particular, are highly acclaimed worldwide. They specialize in completely handmade production by skilled craftsmen and are known for their strong yet lightweight rod designs.

They are also a rod manufacturer that uses carbon fiber from Toray, the parent company of "MOONRAKERS."
In fact, Toray's carbon material is used extensively in high-end applications like rockets and F1 cars due to its overwhelming lightness and high strength, but it's not commonly used in fishing rods. This is because despite its high quality, it inevitably results in a higher price.
However, "Ripple Fisher" continues to use Toray's materials despite this.

During this collaboration, we heard about this and asked, "Why do you still use Toray's materials?" They answered immediately:
"Because the quality is different. Our meticulously crafted rods require Toray's quality."
We were deeply impressed by that answer. And we strongly felt that if we were to create clothing for anglers, which many had requested, we wanted to do it with them first.

The fishing scene is actually a very harsh environment, with sweat, dirt, sunburn, and odors. We wondered if the overwhelming high functionality of "MOON-TECH®" could be effective in dealing with these challenges.

Based on this hypothesis, "Ripple Fisher" had their field staff repeatedly test the shirts during actual fishing. The three functions that received particularly strong support were:


[Field Staff Comments]
1|Moisture-wicking and quick-drying:
"The comfort of cotton, the functionality of an ultimate dry T-shirt"—that's exactly what this shirt is. Incredibly comfortable, yet overwhelmingly functional. It didn't stick to the skin even in poorly ventilated areas, dried quickly, and remained free from stickiness.

2|Deodorizing:
The deodorizing function, specifically targeting the ammonia odor which is a main component of sweat, significantly reduced unpleasant smells even in situations where washing was difficult. My family even told me, "Please, just wear that shirt all the time!" (laughs)

3|Stain-resistant:
It resisted stains from fish blood and the EVA material used on rod grips, and even if stains occurred, they washed off easily. Fishing inevitably involves dirt. We tend to choose black T-shirts, but black T-shirts get hot in the summer sun. But white T-shirts are ruined after one use. With this T-shirt, a "fresh white T-shirt" became a realistic option, which was previously out of the question, thanks to its level of stain resistance.

 

"Ripple Fisher" began with a request from a fisherman.

"I can't catch certain fish, so I need a strong, tenacious rod."

Ripple Fisher started by building a specialized rod to meet that demand.

Their consistent stance has been to "create rods that fulfill customers' dreams," and while they have expanded their challenges over time, what remains unchanged is:

"To be a reliable tool in extreme conditions."

That's why they are absolutely meticulous about "quality" in both materials and manufacturing.

We at MOONRAKERS deeply resonate with this spirit, and with the desire to reach "all those who love fishing," we have shaped this product together.

This time, we intentionally made the sizing the same as the original MOONRAKERS, making it easy for existing MOONRAKERS fans to use. On the other hand, the design is meticulously crafted, featuring the "Ripple Fisher" logo on the left chest and back. The design exudes presence and sophistication, making it stand out remarkably in fishing scenes. This intricate design is only possible with advanced printing technology (the latest DTF printing technology). Additionally, the print on the back neck features an original double-name design, embodying the aspirations of both companies. The cool yet somewhat warm design pairs perfectly with the "MOON-TECH®" material, making it an ideal choice not only for outdoor and fishing scenes but also for everyday town use.

Moving forward, through "MOONRAKERS" activities, we aim to collaborate with and introduce wonderful people from diverse genres, not limited to apparel.

We hope you continue to enjoy watching what we do.

Introducing the new MOON-TECH® Tank Top!

We are excited to announce the launch of MOONRAKERS' first tank top made from "MOON-TECH®" material, available for purchase on our online shop from 12:00 PM on Wednesday, July 23!

"MOON-TECH®" Tank Top
(WHITE・NAVY・BLACK)

Sales begin on Wednesday, July 23, at 12:00 PM

 

 

The intense summer heat has become an annual event, and it seems that consecutive scorching days are about to begin this week.
The "MOON-TECH®" tank top is an item that we are launching urgently in response to requests from customers for cooler sleeveless options in midsummer, and sleeveless options for innerwear, to combat the summer heat.

Maximizing the material properties of "MOON-TECH®" to reduce discomfort from sweat, it offers a dry and comfortable feel even with heavy perspiration. It significantly reduces the stress of harsh summers, from daily life to active scenes.

By using a common pattern with our collaboration partner, TENEZ, we were able to achieve a quick launch for this product.
TENEZ has already started offering tank tops, which are proving popular as outerwear for sports scenes, particularly tennis. We encourage you to check them out as well.

*For details on TENEZ products, please click here.

 

Meanwhile, MOONRAKERS' version is a simple, plain type designed to meet your demands. It has a casual yet refined look, making it versatile enough to be worn as both outerwear and innerwear.

We will continue to listen to your feedback and strive to quickly launch highly requested items. We would be grateful if you would continue to share your requests with us.

Announcement of the Launch of Three Collaboration T-Shirt Designs

ELNEST MOON TEE
Resale has begun

A collaboration item with the outdoor brand "ELNEST CREATIVE ACTIVITY" (hereinafter ELNEST), directed by actor Arata Iura.

We received many requests for restocks, so this is the second arrival this season.

Reflecting ELNEST's preference, the silhouette is slightly oversized. The single point on the chest and the rubber name are small and simple, yet they make their presence felt.
Based on the functionality of "MOON-TECH®," this is a passionate piece that we arrived at in pursuit of the ideal outdoor T-shirt.

*Many people attended the "Maitori Festival" CAMP event hosted by "ELNEST," which MOONRAKERS members also participated in recently, wearing this T-shirt, which was a heartwarming sight!

 

"MNMM × MOONRAKERS"
MOON-TECH® OVERSIZE TEE

BLACK / General sale started
WHITE / Resale started

A collaboration T-shirt with "MNMM" (Minimum), a fashion brand that develops products with the theme of "minimalist clothing."

We spent a long time perfecting this deep, "jet black" color. We received a tremendous amount of support for our project on Makuake. Thank you very much.

In response to your requests, we have now launched general sales of black and restocked white!

The impactful sleeve length and boxy body create a relaxed, oversized silhouette.
It balances the overall look even with simple styling and stands out as a main item in summer coordination.

 

"WWS × MOONRAKERS"
MOON-TECH® Oversized T-shirt Resale started

The "invincible T-shirt," a collaboration with "WWS" (Double Double S), which created "workwear that looks like a suit" and "changes the way clothes are," and has sold over 250,000 units.

Last year, only the pocketed type was available, but in response to your feedback, the [no pocket] type released this year has been restocked!


~Neckline tag specifications changed from this sales batch~

For items arriving from this batch onwards, the brand name on the back of the collar has been changed from the conventional "woven label" to "transfer print." (We apologize for the delayed announcement.)
We received feedback that the feel of the neckline label was bothersome, so we have implemented this change on a trial basis, starting with this replenishment.
(Therefore, please note that products currently sold in WWS stores and on their e-commerce site still feature the traditional woven label specification.)

Adopting the popular wide silhouette from WWS, the neckline is designed to be slightly wider. It combines a refreshing, effortless look with exceptional relaxation, while also offering an exquisite fit that doesn't appear sloppy.

Its simple design makes it suitable for a wide range of occasions, from business casual under a suit to weekend styling. It can be worn as an inner layer or as a main piece, blending naturally into your daily life.

 

~ About products with pockets ~

The type with pockets is scheduled to be restocked this weekend. For those who prefer that type, we kindly ask for your patience until it becomes available.

A diverse collection of T-shirts, each fully expressing the individuality of its brand.

We at MOONRAKERS genuinely look forward to collaborating with like-minded individuals and will continue to expand our collaborations in the future.

The unique vision of each brand, embedded in every single piece.
The same material, yet entirely different "clothes" – such is their diversity.

We hope you'll experience the differences and the joy of clothing creation, and find your favorite piece.

"MOON-TECH®" Restock Notification / Our Current Status

We will be restocking the "MOON-TECH®" T-shirts, which had once again gone out of stock!

To all of you who have been waiting, thank you for your patience.



The popular [WHITE] has already been restocked, and [NAVY], which sold out immediately after being restocked last week, has also been restocked quickly thanks to the cooperation of our partner factory.

For those who missed out on purchasing, please take this opportunity to check them out.

As for [KHAKI, CHARCOAL, and BLACK], they are scheduled to be restocked as early as tomorrow, July 4th, or by Monday at the latest. For those who wish to purchase these colors, we kindly ask for your continued patience.




This year, we have had to inform you about stockouts and restocks multiple times, which may have surprised you. However, I believe your surprise fell into two main patterns.

Those who have continuously supported us expressed surprise at how quickly we restocked, while those who newly joined our supporters were surprised by how often items were out of stock so early in the season.

Today, to properly address both of these sentiments, I would like to report on the significant changes "MOONRAKERS" has undergone since last year and our current situation.

This will be a long read, but I hope you will bear with us.



This season, from March to June 2025, "MOONRAKERS" e-commerce sales have reached an astonishing level, more than five times that of last year.

We are deeply grateful for your truly passionate support and were simply amazed by the magnitude of this response.

In fact, at the start of this season, we had prepared inventory at three times last year's level, anticipating a rapid increase in demand.
We also had a fast production system in place in case of stockouts.

We had thoroughly considered and believed our inventory levels would not be easily depleted. We had also established a rapid production system through numerous discussions with Japan's proud manufacturing companies.
We thought that with all these measures, we would not run out of stock and could deliver products to those who needed them in a timely manner.

However, in reality, we received overwhelmingly greater support than we ever imagined—more than five times our projections. As a result, even for the "MOON-TECH®" T-shirts, which were in highest demand and for which we had made thorough preparations to avoid stockouts, frequent stockouts still occurred.

In fact, until last year, restocking took several months.
There was even a period of nearly six months when materials were scarce and we had almost no products.
As those who have supported "MOONRAKERS" from the beginning know, compared to that situation last year, this year we have been able to restock popular items within a month, showing significant improvement.

However, it is still not enough. This is because the situation where we cannot deliver products due to stockouts to our supportive customers is not ideal.

We need further evolution.

Towards "high-speed production" that goes beyond conventional wisdom: "Don't make unnecessary items; deliver needed products when they are needed."

From here, we will take on the challenge again.


In the traditional textile and fashion industry, it was believed that when there was excess inventory, the only options were to clear it out in a sale or to simply run out of stock.

The challenge we passionately began discussing with our manufacturing partners was ridiculed as "impossible" and we were laughed at as "fools chasing an unattainable dream."

But we had仲間 (nakama - comrades/friends).
We had all of you who supported our challenge.

From materials to sewing, the long process of manufacturing.
And all of you who use these products in your daily lives.
Many people are involved before a single product fulfills its purpose.

We want everyone involved to understand the current situation transparently and to work together to achieve what was once deemed impossible – the "untrodden path."
We want to see "unseen landscapes" with all of you.

Once again, thank you for your tremendous support for "MOONRAKERS."

With your warm encouragement as our wind.
With your frank feedback as our compass.
We will continue to aim for the "untrodden path" and advance our ship.

Please, join us on this "adventure."
We would be honored to have your continued companionship.
