sacai is the Tokyo label Chitose Abe founded in 1999 after years working under Rei Kawakubo and Junya Watanabe. It builds clothes through hybridization, splicing contrasting fabrics and garment archetypes into single pieces: bombers grafted onto tailoring, pleated panels fused to knitwear, cargo pants that fold into skirts. Abe shows co-ed collections in Paris, framing Autumn 2026 around what she calls the beauty of destruction. Recent collaborations include Carhartt WIP, UGG and a third footwear capsule with J.M. Weston. The company remains private and founder-led.

How Sacai fits
| Category | Runs | Shape | Length | Size advice | Confidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hoodies & sweatshirts | runs small | Oversized and blousy through the body, frequently with pleated or knit panels adding volume | Regular to long, with hems that flare or drop at the back | Take one size up; a sacai 3 is the common pick for a typical medium wearer. | medium |
| Shirts & overshirts | runs small | Relaxed body with narrow shoulders and armholes; hybrid panels can make the hem much fuller than the chest | Long, often intentionally uneven | Size up one if you're between sizes or want room across the shoulders. | medium |
| Jeans & denim | mixed | Usually relaxed or wide-leg denim, sometimes spliced with contrast panels | Long, typically needing a hem | Treat them like the trousers: usual waist or one up, and expect a wide leg. | low |
| Jackets | runs small | Oversized and sculptural overall but cut with a high, narrow armhole and close shoulder | Regular to long, often with a longer back panel | Size up one — two if you intend to layer knitwear underneath — and check shoulder width first. | medium |
| T-shirts & graphic tees | runs small | Boxy through the body with a comparatively slim shoulder and sleeve | Longer body, often with a spliced or dropped back hem | Size up one from your usual tee size unless you want a close chest fit. | medium |
| Trousers & pants | slightly small | Generally relaxed to wide, sometimes with wrap, skirt or cargo panels that add bulk | Long inseams that usually need hemming on shorter frames | Order your usual waist or one up, and plan on a hem for anything under about 6ft. | medium |
Does Sacai run big or small?
Sacai runs small. Most shoppers take one size up from their usual (a sacai 3 tends to land like a standard M/L), and up two if you have broad shoulders or want to layer. sacai uses Japanese numeric sizing (1–5) that generally runs small against US/EU labels, so buyers typically size up one, even though the finished silhouettes themselves look oversized and layered.
