Patina Osaka, the first property in Japan by Capella Hotel Group, a leading luxury hotel company, has unveiled its second collaboration collection with world-renowned artist VERDY. The new items will be available for purchase from Friday, January 31, 2026, at the hotel's retail shop on the first floor.
Building on the mutual trust and creative synergy developed through previous collaborations, this latest collection represents a highly anticipated fusion of Patina Osaka's aesthetic and VERDY's artistic expression.
About the Collection
This collection features three items that reflect the sensibilities of both Patina Osaka and VERDY: sweat crew neck, sweat hoodie, and socks. Against the backdrop of Patina Osaka's architectural beauty, ambiance, and the energy of Osaka as a city, VERDY's signature playfulness and refined graphics transform the hotel's worldview into a lifestyle collection for everyday wear. The illustrations continue from the first collection, centered around three key elements: Patina's logo, the symbolic butterfly motif, and VERDY's character Vick. Through VERDY's natural expression, these motifs are depicted as a world where street culture and luxury quietly blend together, creating the collection's iconic visual identity.
Commenting on the collection, VERDY shared:
"After actually staying at Patina Osaka since its opening last year, I designed items that I thought would be great to have available at the hotel. I really enjoyed creating pieces like sweatshirts that guests can wear while relaxing at the hotel, and collaborating with WHIMSY, whom I've been friends with, to create the socks. I hope everyone looks forward to the release."
Triple Collaboration Socks Merging Three Worlds
Among the three items, the socks were created as a triple collaboration featuring WHIMSY, an Osaka-based sock brand.
WHIMSY is a skate sock brand that started in Osaka in 2015, captivating many fans with its comfortable fit, high durability, and free-spirited, playful designs. In recent years, they have opened a store in Tokyo, further expanding their presence as an Osaka-born brand.
This triple collaboration was realized through the long-standing friendship between VERDY and WHIMSY.
VERDY and WHIMSY sharing Osaka as their common roots, along with Patina Osaka. By intersecting these three worlds, these socks embody a fusion of luxury, street, and skate culture in one iconic piece.
