Besuboru

Baseball was first introduced to Japan as a school sport in 1872 by American Horace Wilson, an English professor at the Kaisei Academy in Tokyo. The first organized adult baseball team called the Shimbashi Athletic Club, was established in 1878.

Nowadays, the influence of this sport on Japanese society continues to evolve, revealing a vibrant tapestry of community, history, and tradition fostered by both fans and players. At its core, the national phenomenon exemplifies a distinctive characteristic of Japan: the remarkable talent to embrace foreign concepts and transform them into something uniquely profound.

Introducing the latest addition to our retro-inspired lineup for the Spring/Summer 2024 season: the short sleeve Baseball Shirt. Crafted from 100% polyester, this relaxed-fit shirt embodies the timeless allure of classic sportswear. Completed with our signature EDWIN SUPPLY branding and iconic Katakana Logo emblazoned across the back.

Expanding on the BESOBORU theme, we've refreshed our retro-inspired sportswear offerings in the KATAKANA collection with a range of new colors. From Hoodies and Long Sleeves to Crewneck Sweats, the Volume Zip Jacket, and a stylish tote bag, there's something to keep you looking sharp even when you're off the field.
