MLB collaborates with Takashi Murakami for limited edition merch ahead of Tokyo series
Briefly

Major League Baseball is launching a partnership with acclaimed Japanese artist Takashi Murakami to create a limited edition collection of merchandise for the upcoming Tokyo series featuring the Los Angeles Dodgers and Chicago Cubs. The collection, which includes items such as t-shirts, hoodies, and customized jerseys, highlights the longstanding friendship between Japan and the United States. Takashi Murakami is enthusiastic about this collaboration, especially in spotlighting Shohei Ohtani. The unique artwork will also be featured on other baseball gear, making this a significant cultural moment for both nations.
I think this new collection builds upon the historical friendship between Japan and the United States... I feel lucky to be able to work alongside Complex, MLB and highlight Shohei Ohtani, an outstanding athlete who has emerged from Japan and made a name for himself on the global stage.
Complex is proud to bring together Takashi Murakami and two of the biggest teams in MLB to celebrate this historic sports moment in Tokyo. This once-in-a-lifetime collaboration merges Murakami's unmistakable artistry with the global energy of baseball, capturing the essence of the city and the deep cultural connections between Japan and the United States.
