Junya Watanabe

Collaboration

Junya Watanabe is considered one of Japan's most innovative designers – known for his willingness to experiment with new cuts and unconventional design ideas. He has had a close partnership with Heinrich Dinkelacker for over ten years .


The exclusive models are distributed, among other places, through Dover Street Market and Comme des Garçons, which underscores our international reach and relevance in the high-fashion sector.

Heinrich Dinkelacker was selected as one of only seven partners to complete the 39 looks presented at the Junya Watanabe MAN Fall/Winter 2024 show in Paris. The collection presented a new and surprising image of the modern man – and our shoes made a clear statement of craftsmanship.

The focus of this collaboration was our classic Rio skirting board.

Since 2025, the Miami Last has also been added, which was interpreted as a collaboration model for the Spring/Summer 2025 show.

The fact that Heinrich Dinkelacker was represented again at the international Fashion Week in 2025 shows that our products are not only handcrafted masterpieces, but also style-defining elements on the world's major catwalks.
