"Moontech® Nature" Restock Notification

We are very grateful for the overwhelming response we received to the "MOON-TECH® nature T-shirt," which went on general sale at the end of July. This led to many colors and sizes being out of stock.

We are pleased to announce that these items, primarily the out-of-stock colors, have been restocked in our online shop.

MOON-TECH® nature

 

Unfortunately, we were unable to offer the "BEIGE" color this time due to limited material availability. We sincerely apologize to all those who were looking forward to it.

However, please know that our project is guided by your voices as our "compass."
If we receive many restock requests from you in the future, we will promptly consider re-production.

We kindly ask for your understanding in this matter and would be grateful if you could share your thoughts with us.

 

"I want a T-shirt that is thinner, cooler, and more comfortable to wear."
"I want something with a natural, cotton-like texture that can be easily incorporated into daily life."

Responding to these voices, "MOON-TECH® nature" was born, leveraging Japan's proud technology.

It is a future material created by technology, and an evolution of clothing born from your voices.

 

 

We will continue to directly connect your "voices" to the manufacturing floor, aiming to create "evolving apparel."

And we, you, and the factories, too.

We will strive to revitalize Japan by creating a "new textile industry" where all involved become equal partners, leading to prosperity and smiles for everyone.

 

 

With your support as our "wind" and your voices as our "compass,"

we will continue our "journey of adventure."

We hope you will continue to share your "voices" with us, both good and bad, without reservation.

Invincible Long-Sleeve T-Shirt | WWS x MOONTECHS Part 3!

The collaboration project with "WWS" started last year.
This time, we are launching the third phase of this collaboration, the "Invincible Long-Sleeve T-Shirt" project!

 

"Invincible Long-Sleeve T-shirt | MOON-TECH® oversize longT"

Launching on Makuake!
[September 12th (Friday) 12:00 PM - September 29th (Monday) 10:00 PM]

 

"WWS" is an amazing brand that emerged from a plumbing company and created a "new genre of clothing" called "suit-style workwear."

This collaboration between "WWS" and "MOONRAKERS," which aims to evolve clothing, is truly a challenge to "change the way clothing exists."

 

Our challenge continued with last summer's "Invincible Pocket T-shirt" and this spring's "Invincible Hoodie," and across both projects, we received support from over 3,000 people.

Furthermore, after general sales, it became so popular that it repeatedly sold out, receiving enthusiastic support with comments like: "It's an essential piece of clothing for everyday life!" and "I only wear this now!"

Once again, we express our heartfelt gratitude for everyone's truly warm support.

 

Amidst this, the most requested next product from everyone was the "long-sleeve T-shirt" that we are launching this time.
To answer those requests, we have been working at full speed this summer to launch it quickly.

Guided by your voices, this is a product into which we have poured our hearts.
It's the "WWS x MOONRAKERS" challenge to "evolve clothing."

We are truly looking forward to showing you what we've created.

「ELNEST MOON TEE」 Long Sleeve T-Shirt Restock Notification

The "ELNEST MOON TEE" is a collaboration T-shirt series with outdoor brand "ELNEST CREATIVE ACTIVITY" (hereinafter "ELNEST").

We are pleased to announce that the "long-sleeve TEE," which was out of stock, has now been restocked! Additionally, we have replenished the short-sleeve T-shirts from the same series.

ELNEST Collaboration Page

 

A simple design with a small rubber logo.
Reflecting the preferences of ELNEST director Mr. Iura, it features a reassuringly large silhouette.

"The light and gentle material gives you a feeling of 'not wearing anything,' and the comfortable airflow is also appealing. The unique texture of the lining is also comfortable, making it possible to enjoy cutting-edge materials as if they were everyday T-shirts."

Mr. Iura's passion for "MOON-TECH®" is embedded throughout the product.

 

The collaboration with "ELNEST" is well-received by MOONRAKERS users, thanks to Mr. Iura's meticulous attention to sizing and details.

The passion dedicated to crafting.
The desire to change the existing fashion business.
Our collaboration between "MOONRAKERS" and "ELNEST" began there.
However, without your support, that passion and desire would eventually fade. Your support is proof that this unconventional collaboration is right, and it is the driving force behind creating another new fashion unlike any before.
We will continue to advance this collaboration with your voices. If possible, we kindly ask for your continued support for our endeavor and welcome your feedback, both positive and negative, in the future.

Product Restock Notification / The Message Behind Our TV Commercial

Today, we're excited to announce that two products you've frequently requested for restock are now available again in our online shop!

 

MOON-TECH® PILE
Cardigan JACKET&Easy PANTS
- Collaboration with Super Normal -


"MOON-TECH® PILE" is an innovative textile that successfully combines the overwhelming functionality of "MOON-TECH®" with a natural, beautiful surface and astonishing comfort.

The airy feel is thanks to the soft, breathable pique pile material.
A jacket that is as light and comfortable as a cardigan, creating a polished look just by wearing it, and pants that offer elegance within a relaxed fit.

This set-up, which balances "comfort" and a "neat appearance," will transform your daily life into a more comfortable, convenient, and beautiful future, whether you're in the city, at home, or traveling.

 

 

MOON-TECH®OVERSIZE TEE
- Collaboration with MNMM -

A collaboration T-shirt with "MNMM," which proposes minimalist clothing.

With a box silhouette and longer sleeves. Although it is a one-size-fits-all oversized shirt, it is unisex and suits both larger and smaller body types.

The draping silhouette created by the supple yet firm "MOON-TECH®" material is the ultimate "minimal" design, giving a relaxed yet not sloppy look.

This is a must-have item for your wardrobe, whether worn alone or layered.



All the support we received this summer from everyone.
Numerous voices that showed us the way forward.
We are currently planning various new projects based on these.

As one of these, we experimentally created and aired a TV commercial in the Kanto region for one week from August 18th to August 24th, conveying "MOONRAKERS'" vision and a message for the future of the apparel industry. (We are also currently promoting it on social media.)

We are still an immature project.
However, the enthusiastic support we receive from everyone daily, and the insights you provide, are undoubtedly helping us evolve.
We sincerely ask for your continued feedback, both positive and negative, without hesitation.

Once again, thank you very much for always giving us your warm support and feedback!
Our future is moving forward with your great encouragement.
We hope you will continue to watch with anticipation.

Announcement of the launch of the third "ELNEST x MOONRAKERS" collaboration



"ELNEST CREATIVE ACTIVITY (hereinafter ELNEST)" is an outdoor brand directed by actor Arata Iura.

The "ELNEST MOON TEE", the first collaboration between ELNEST and MOONRAKERS, has been called the "ideal outdoor T-shirt" by many who have worn it. It has become such a popular item that it sells out immediately every time we restock it, which has surprised even us.

And now, as an evolution of our collaboration, we have decided to launch a series of coordinated outfits made from a new material called "MOON-TECH® PILE".

The lineup will consist of three items: a T-shirt, a short-sleeved shirt, and shorts.

We hope you will take a look at our new product, which Mr. Iura himself describes as "the ultimate airy coordinated outfit for the outdoors."
The keyword is "airy".

"MOON-TECH® PILE" has a solid feel while also being light and natural, as if it's made of air. It combines the softness of pile with the refreshing feel of pique, creating a gentle yet cool and smooth wearing experience.

It is equipped with 12 functions, including high-level deodorizing and stain-resistant technologies, developed to improve the wellness of astronauts, who are said to suffer most from sweat in the world. This is truly an evolved version that can be called "MOON-TECH® 2.0", providing "unbeatable" comfort for both outdoor activities and daily life.



The product design has also evolved to be more active.

The T-shirt emphasizes a three-dimensional feel with raglan sleeves that transition from behind the shoulder, creating a beautiful silhouette with varying front and back lengths.
The short-sleeved shirt combines comfort and individuality with a wide design and unique three-dimensional pattern that allows air to flow through.
The shorts pursue ease of movement with an asymmetrical technical pattern and meticulous details.

In all items, a playful rubber name combining a crescent moon and a flying object provides a subtle accent within the simple design.

Available in four colors: CHARCOAL, BEIGE, NAVY, and WHITE, they can be enjoyed as a coordinated set or as individual items, and different colored tops and bottoms can be combined, fitting a wide range of situations.

This is the evolved form of our collaboration.
We hope you will take a look.

*These products are also available at the online stores of ELNEST and Fujimaki Department Store.

MOONRAKERS × WWS "Oversized T-shirt" Restock Notification

Since its Makuake project last year, the "Invincible Pocket T-shirt | Moon-Tech Oversized T-shirt" has been a continuous hit with many repeat users.

The "no pocket" type, popular for its simple and sophisticated silhouette, had been out of stock for quite some time, so we have now restocked it!

This collaborative item retains the outstanding functionality of "MOON-TECH®" while featuring a modern oversized silhouette design by WWS.

The wide neckline creates a relaxed feel, yet maintains an exquisite fit that doesn't look sloppy. The length is perfect for layering under a jacket without bulk, and it also creates a well-balanced, beautiful silhouette when worn alone.

Simple yet impactful, this is a major hit product for this summer.


This is the final restock of this season for this hit item, born from the shared vision of MOONRAKERS and WWS.

For those who have been requesting it, please don't miss out on this opportunity.

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

Three collaboration T-shirts are now available at our online shop!

"ELNEST × MOONRAKERS"
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.

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.

Announcement of the Makuake Project: "Umbrellas, Evolving | Summer Shield® Tech Umbrella"

This time, we are taking on a new challenge.

It's the "umbrella," which, like clothing, is always by our side.

The "Invincible Umbrella | SUMMER SHIELD® TECH-UMBRELLA" project will launch on Makuake on Thursday, April 9th, at 12:00 PM (noon)!

The "umbrella" is something everyone uses daily.

It's such a familiar and commonplace item.

That's why umbrellas have remained largely unchanged for a long time.

However, umbrellas also had many problems.

They can't cope with the intense sunlight of recent years.
They can't fully protect against the increasingly harsh heatwaves.
They feel a bit unreliable against the intensifying heavy rains.

Perhaps we had resigned ourselves to the "umbrella" as something we "had to use," with a sense of resignation.

However, in recent years, the climate has changed significantly and become more severe.

We felt that "clothing alone might not be enough" to deal with these changes.

We need to evolve the "umbrella," which is always by our side in daily life.

That's what we thought.

"SUMMER SHIELD® TECH-UMBRELLA"

The overwhelming functionality of cutting-edge materials that Japan boasts.
The overwhelming convenience required in modern daily life.
And the beauty created by Japanese craftsmanship.

It is an "evolving umbrella" that brings together all the elements we currently consider to be the best.

The project for the "Invincible Umbrella | SUMMER SHIELD® TECH-UMBRELLA" will launch on Makuake on Thursday, April 9th, at 12:00 PM (noon).

Our new challenge, from "MOONRAKERS."

We hope you'll take a look.

\Starts Thursday, April 9th, 12:00 PM (noon)/

 

※This project is being held with special material supply from Toray, in order to allow as many people as possible to experience Toray's innovative material "SUMMER SHIELD®" this summer.
Therefore, we apologize, but this will be a [limited sale] with a limited quantity, and will end once sold out. For those who need it, please don't miss out and consider supporting us with an early purchase.

JAXA Partner Startup Certification | Releasing Commemorative Items!

 

We are pleased to announce that our company has been certified as a "JAXA Partner Startup" under the startup support program operated by JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency)!

* A "JAXA Partner Startup" is a title given to companies that engage in co-creation or joint research with JAXA, or conduct business utilizing JAXA's patents.

What is a JAXA Partner Startup?

"MOON-TECH®", the material symbolizing our project, is an advanced material equipped with 12 high-level functionalities, primarily space technology developed to make life more comfortable in the extreme environment of space (International Space Station).

When it was first developed, it was called "excessively functional," and people in the industry were astonished, saying, "You don't need that much."

However, with the harsh summer heat and sudden torrential downpours, our living environment has rapidly changed.

And the wonderful Japanese technology, which is proud of its ability to cope with the "extreme environment" of space, has come to be needed and accepted by many people.

Going forward, we will further strengthen our collaboration with JAXA and challenge ourselves to develop even more remarkable technologies.

We hope that you will continue to watch our endeavors.

 

MOON-TECH® T-Shirts
JAXA LABEL COLLAB

Furthermore, to commemorate this collaboration with JAXA, we will be selling a special model of "MOON-TECH® T-Shirts" with a "JAXA LABEL COLLAB" piss name attached.

A small but special piss name. It symbolizes a beautiful connection with Japan's proud space technology. (Normally, this product is only sold at JAXA facilities (Tsukuba, Sagamihara, Tanegashima) and JAXA-affiliated stores).

We hope you will take this opportunity to check it out.

Once again, we extend our deepest gratitude for your warm support.

To deliver substantial orders to sewing factories during their off-peak season.
From there, to steadily improve the working conditions of the craftsmen.
And to pass on Japanese craftsmanship to the next generation.

We deeply feel that all of this begins with the support we receive from you.

MOON-TECH® Polo Shirt
Until Monday, March 30th, 10:00 PM

We will continue to move forward, aiming for unseen horizons, pushed by the "wind" of your support.

ROF × MOONRAKERS "Invincible Mountain T-Shirt" Project Launched

We are pleased to announce the release of new "mountain-specific wear" that many of you who enjoy mountaineering and outdoor activities have been requesting.

The T-shirt "Moon-Hiker T," developed based on real experiences in mountaineering and long-trail hiking, is now available on Makuake as a collaborative project with the outdoor garage brand "ROF."

This collaboration is with "ROF," a garage brand run by hiker Takakura, who is popular on mountaineering YouTube channels.
This initiative began with a single message from Mr. Takakura.

"I want to spread MOON-TECH® in the field of mountaineering."

After more than 20 years of facing mountains and walking thousands of kilometers on long trails, he encountered our "MOON-TECH®" T-shirt.

From that experience, which he described as "truly the best," the desire to bring this material to the world of mountaineering was born. We resonated with his passion, and the project began.

The newly released "Moon-Hiker T" is a T-shirt developed based on real experiences in mountaineering and long-trail hiking.
The "clothing troubles" in mountaineering, such as sweat, odor, and stickiness. Solving these issues ultimately enhances comfort, safety, and the quality of the experience itself.

It offers overwhelming deodorizing performance, a special structure that makes sweat stains less noticeable, high quick-drying properties and comfortable wear, and is stain-resistant and durable for long-term use.

Mr. Takakura describes it not just as a function, but as "technology to improve QOL (Quality of Life)."

And every detail is designed from the "perspective of a hiker who has continuously used it," including:

・A chest pocket structure that prevents sunglasses from falling out
・A longer tail design for peace of mind when bending over
・A silhouette optimized for outdoor movements

These specifications are born from real experiences in the mountains.

What works best in the mountains is also best for daily life.

What functions well in harsh environments provides overwhelming comfort in daily life. This T-shirt is not just for mountaineering.

It requires less washing, no ironing, and is comfortable for long journeys.
It is a piece that seamlessly connects outdoor activities and daily life.

The practical knowledge of ROF and the advanced technology of MOONRAKERS.
And the desire to "deliver this experience to more people."

 

"Moon-Hiker T"

A single piece that transforms both mountaineering and daily life.
When clothes change, the experience changes.
When the experience changes, daily life changes.

Mr. Takakura's channel, which has many fans in the mountaineering world, also provides detailed information on the development background and unique features.

We hope you will take a look at our collaboration.

Restock Notification: MOON-TECH® PILE Set-up in Khaki and Gray

The "MOON-TECH® PILE setup" has received a tremendous response every time it is restocked.

We are pleased to announce that the "Khaki Gray" color, which has been in high demand, is now back in stock!
Additionally, the basic colors "Navy" and "Black" are also available again.

MOON-TECH® PILE retains the exceptional functionality of MOON-TECH®, while achieving a natural and beautiful surface texture combined with surprisingly soft comfort.

The highly breathable pique pile material offers the lightness of a cardigan with an appropriate level of formality, keeping you dry and comfortable even in sweaty seasons, making it a perfect garment for the upcoming warmer months.

The mesh pile structure, created with Toray's special knitting technology, allows air to pass through while being incredibly smooth, light, soft, and providing a non-restrictive fit.
It feels as if you're enveloped in air.

Furthermore, it retains MOON-TECH®'s unbeatable functionalities such as sweat-wicking, quick-drying, deodorizing, stain-resistant, sweat-stain preventing, and iron-free properties, while achieving an elegant and natural beauty that differs from both natural fibers and conventional synthetic fibers.



This product was born from a collaboration with "Super Normal," a project that creates "excellent ordinary" items.

It's a new form of everyday wear that is gender-neutral and naturally blends into various daily situations.

Utterly comfortable and pleasant.
Yet, with a naturally refined silhouette.
Comfortable, convenient, and beautiful in all scenarios.

This is the "excellent ordinary of the future" that we aimed for.


This setup has been chosen by many every time it's restocked. We are delighted to be able to offer it again, responding to continued high demand.

We hope you will take this opportunity, while all colors are available, to take a look.

MOON-TECH®
WWS Collaboration Page

This product is a creation co-developed by WWS, which "changes the way clothes are," and MOONRAKERS, which "aims to create the future with advanced technology."

While based on a slightly wide and comfortable fit, it offers an exquisite balance that is never too loose. The length is just right to look neat even worn alone, and it doesn't appear sloppy. Details like the original double-zip zipper, which gives a simple design a strong presence, subtly convey sophistication even as streetwear.

It fits all lifestyles, including casual, sports, travel, and work.

And it offers an astonishingly lightweight and utterly comfortable wearing experience. It eliminates sweat concerns, blocks UV rays, is extremely easy to wash, and requires no ironing. Combined with the meticulous finishing of Japanese sewing, it is durable for long-term use.

This product, infused with our aspirations, is sure to be a great success in the coming season. Please experience the "future life" it creates.

Announcement of Winning the "Senken Synthetic Fiber Award / Marketing Department Award"

As we announced once at the end of last year, we have been awarded the 2025 Senken Synthetic Fiber Award / Marketing Department Award.
Our representative, Nishida, attended the awards ceremony.

The Senken Synthetic Fiber Award is hosted by Senken Shimbun, a trade newspaper for the textile industry. It recognizes initiatives that have contributed to the development of Japan's synthetic fiber industry through raw yarn technology, processing technology, and marketing activities.
Established in 1970, this is the 56th iteration of this prestigious and authoritative award. All the other award winners were major manufacturers whom we look up to.

Amidst such esteemed company, it was a day filled with surprise and deep honor to have our efforts so highly regarded.

Photographed by Senken Shimbun

 

The efforts recognized this time were our challenge to revive Japanese manufacturing, starting with advanced materials, and our commitment to directly engage and dialogue with you through the DtoC model.

To create unprecedented products by utilizing technology with our colleagues.
To properly and accurately convey the excellence of Japanese craftsmanship.
And to have you actually use our products and give us your feedback.

All of this has been built up together with our colleagues and with all of you.


This award is not just ours.

The warm "support" we receive daily.
The "voices" that, though sometimes strict, engage with us sincerely.
The "colleagues" who face unprecedented challenges with us.


All of this has brought MOONRAKERS to this point.
This award is something we received together with all of you and with our colleagues.

Once again, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to everyone involved.

We are still incomplete. There is so much more to do.

Nevertheless, we will continue to move forward, one step at a time, addressing each challenge.

Transparently. Sincerely. Steadfastly.

We intend to continue this challenge with all our colleagues involved.


Moving forward. Together with you.

We will do our utmost to connect Japanese craftsmanship to the future.

Announcement regarding the "Invincible Polo Shirt" Makuake project

A theme that we had long hesitated to take on.
However, thanks to your encouragement, we have bravely decided to launch it this time.

"Invincible Polo Shirt | MOON-TECH® Polo Shirt".

The project starts on Tuesday, March 17th, at 12:00 PM (noon) on "Makuake"!

 


The item we are taking on this time.
It's the "polo shirt," one of the most beloved and commonly worn garments in daily life.

More formal than a T-shirt.
More casual than a dress shirt.
The ultimate versatile garment that fits anyone, in any situation.

However, polo shirts also come with many concerns.

They're see-through. They stretch out. They wear out quickly.
The collar flips up. It goes flat easily. It doesn't look neat.
Sweat stains, odor, stickiness. The hassle of washing and ironing.

Polo shirts, which should be convenient, often turn out to be a "bundle of stress."

This time, we are challenging ourselves to evolve the polo shirt.

In fact, in the past, we once made a polo shirt with "MOON-TECH®." However, the results were not as expected, and since then, we had been hesitant to venture into polo shirts.

Nevertheless, we kept receiving requests from everyone.

"Please make a polo shirt with MOON-TECH."
"I need a collared shirt for work."
"I want a MOON-TECH that looks neater than a T-shirt."
"I want to use MOON-TECH for golf too."

As we addressed these voices, we realized something.

The polo shirt everyone wanted was not just sportswear or a fashion item.

Easy to use for business.
Looks neat for casual wear.
Overwhelmingly comfortable for sports.

It was the "ultimate all-rounder" that could be used in any situation.

This is how the
"MOON-TECH® Polo Shirt" was born.

Utilizing the functions of "MOON-TECH®," a material equipped with cutting-edge Japanese technology, including space technology,

it looks neat, is easy to use in any situation, and is thoroughly comfortable.

It's the "invincible polo shirt" created with your voices.


"Invincible Polo Shirt | MOON-TECH® Polo Shirt"

The project will start on Tuesday, March 17th, at 12:00 PM (noon) on "Makuake".

This is a new challenge story that has progressed with your voices.

We hope you will take a look.

MOON-TECH® Polo Shirt
Starts Tuesday, March 17th, 12:00 PM


*To deliver the first orders as quickly as possible, this project will be open for a short period of about two weeks, until Monday, March 30th.

While we have prepared a sufficient quantity, the period is limited, so we encourage you to check it out as soon as possible.

 

Polo Shirt Showroom Exhibition

The "MOON-TECH® Polo Shirt" exhibition will begin at the showroom on Saturday, March 14th. We decided to display it earlier than usual so that you can check the product before the project starts.

You can actually check the colors and sizes, so we hope you'll take advantage of this opportunity for fitting and more.

Details such as showroom business hours vary by store, so please check before visiting.

We sincerely apologize for the delay.
====================
This is MOONRAKERS Customer Support.

Regarding the "Chimera Skin® Mods Coat," which was scheduled to go on sale today, March 11 (Wednesday) at 12:00 PM, we are currently experiencing delays in linking with our inventory system, and as a result, the [Khaki] and [Black] colors are not yet available for purchase.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this has caused to everyone who has been waiting for the sale.

We kindly ask for your continued patience and understanding until sales begin.

"CHIMAIRA SKIN® Mods Coat" General Sale Announcement

Thank you for your patience! General sales of the Chimaera Skin® Mod's Coat will finally begin tomorrow, March 11 (Wednesday), at 12:00 PM JST!

Due to the overwhelming popularity on Makuake, we've used up almost all of the fabric, so we sincerely apologize, but the quantity available for sale will be limited.
For the same reason, the available colors will also be limited to black, khaki, and gray (some sizes only).

Normally, we would offer a full range of colors and sizes. However, we've received many requests and expressions of anticipation, such as "I missed out (crying)" and "I'm eagerly awaiting general sales!"
Therefore, despite the current situation, we will proceed with sales based on the quantity we can currently arrange.

We apologize for not being able to prepare a sufficient quantity, but we hope that those who need it will be able to purchase it early.

Chimaera Skin® Mod's Coat
General sales begin March 11 (Wednesday) at 12:00 PM JST

*Due to system reasons, there may be a slight delay around the 12:00 PM JST start time. We appreciate your understanding.

The "Chimaera Skin® Mod's Coat" project, launched on Makuake at the end of last year, received tremendous support from many people right after its launch, selling out almost all of the prepared fabric in just 5 days, with multiple colors selling out in quick succession. We received a great response.

Once again, thank you so much for your support!

To everyone who waited for the revival of "Chimaera Skin®" for three long years.
And to everyone who discovered us during these three years and supported "Chimaera Skin®" for the first time.
We received many comments from many people, both during the project and after delivery.
Each and every one of those was truly heartwarming encouragement for us, who made this revival a reality after three years.

We once again express our deepest gratitude from the bottom of our hearts.

We will continue to dedicate ourselves to creating beloved products by bringing together Japan's advanced technology and manufacturing capabilities.

We hope you will continue to watch over our challenges with warmth.

"Chimaera Skin® Mod's Coat"

By blocking out cold winds, this thin coat keeps you warm even in winter, and its overwhelming lightness makes it comfortable in spring and autumn. In addition, with its high water repellency and water pressure resistance, it serves as an all-around coat that can also be used as a simple raincoat in rainy weather.

Its compact storage and wrinkle-removing function, which quickly smooths out creases, are also very convenient during this season when you frequently take it on and off.
Furthermore, its unique texture, reminiscent of oiled cotton or leather, and its surface, which is a mix of gloss and matte, will beautifully adorn you just by wearing this one coat.

We sincerely hope you will take this opportunity to experience this unique and one-of-a-kind product.
