Florals? For spring…training season? Fresh off the return of his Louis Vuitton collab, Takashi Murakami is bringing his playful blooms to the baseball field ahead of the 2025 Major League Baseball Tokyo Series.
Launching March 7 at 9 a.m. PT/12 p.m. ET on Fanatics.com, MLB.com and Complex.com, the Murakami x MLB collaboration sees the Japanese artist’s charming cherry blossoms, happy flowers and charming characters smiling all over apparel and accessories for the Los Angeles Dodgers and Chicago Cubs. Pricing ranges from $40 for stadium-ready clear tote bags and $55 for New Era 49Fifty hats, to $250 for Nike jerseys and $400 for Victus bats. There are also hoodies, T-shirts, Rawlings baseballs and gloves and a Complex-exclusive set of Topps trading cards ($120).
As for the collab’s roster, find gear for L.A. players Shohei Ohtani, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Mookie Betts and Freddie Freeman alongside New York team members Shota Imanaga, Seiya Suzuki and Dansby Swanson. And don’t be surprised to spot the fashionable pieces on starry sports fans, including Jennifer Lawrence, Taika Waititi and Rita Ora (all spotted in the stands at Dodger Stadium at the 2024 World Series), or on Illinois natives such as Hilary Clinton, Nick Offerman, Bill Murray and Eddie Vedder (all self-professed Cubs devotees).
