Children of the Discordance and Yamaha Pursue Futuristic Dystopia

Children of the Discordance and Yamaha Pursue Futuristic Dystopia

In a surprise melding of minds, eccentric Japanese imprint Children of the Discordance teams up with Yamaha motors for an affectionate capsule seemingly dedicated to the world of media dystopia.

Putting together what could easily be confused for a much more alluring recreation of the Mad Max series, the two distinct labels have upgraded the SR 500 and SR 400 motorcycles in utilitarian garb fit for the longest and most tasking of journeys. Pockets line the wheels in a way impractical yet wholeheartedly imaginative with similar canvas constructions completely shrouding the metallic hardware underneath. Leather accents adorn the patchwork uppers of each specific panel in tanned face while off-white laces tie together the pieces to their component of choice. Mirroring its vehicular comrade with undying commitment, the apparel is exactly as it should be. The same ornaments find way across the bib-like covering found on the chest, utility arrives as a sash slung around the shoulder, the coat adds in the same choice of fabrication, and an imposingly large backpack furthers carrying capacity into the exceedingly abundant.

Few collaborations reach the level of creativity as this, so be sure to grab a full look at the many details below.
