Nepenthes New York, the Manhattan outpost of the Japanese menswear label and retailer, put out a special release on October 20 to mark the Knicks' 2025–26 championship season. Called Nepenthes NY Special New Era FW26, it is a set of four New York Knicks snapback caps plus one printed T-shirt.
The pieces were designed in collaboration with Tsubasa Pichardo. The caps are built on New Era's snapback, a familiar sight on New York streets, and the project takes a distinctly local cue: a title run celebrated by the city itself. Photography for the release is by tanakaomi.
The collection is available in store at Nepenthes New York on West 38th Street in Midtown, and online. For Knicks fans, and for anyone who likes a New York keepsake filtered through a Japanese retailer's eye, it is a neat piece of championship memorabilia.
