Ohana Hatake is unveiling exclusive product drops at Pacific Place, featuring two signature styles in four new shades — part of twelve colourways rolling out across two weeks.

Headlining the lineup is the Ohana Full Bloom collection — a series of eight colourways in bold, floral-inspired slides featuring Murakami’s iconic motifs. Each pair is crafted for both comfort and statement-making, showcasing sculptural flower embellishments, vivid palettes, and distinctive design language true to Murakami’s superflat universe.
