Neon Genesis Evangelion Custom Color 59Fiftys @ ONSPOTZ Japan
ONSPOTZ Japan now has seven exclusive custom color New Era 59Fiftys based on the Neon Genesis Evangelion anime franchise to coincide with the release of the second in the latest series of animated movies overseas. Each fitted is inspired by themes and elements from the series, including direct hooks to the EVA type mecha central to the story.
The first offering features the eyes and body color of the popular EVA-01 model in raised embroidery with a sublimated print undervisor. The next two fitteds pay homage to NGE's female characters, one with Rei Ayaname's image sublimated on the undervisor of a black 5950, '00' embroidered on front and the franchise logo across the back, and another fitted with NERV logo in black embroidery on a red crown, reminiscent of Asuka Langley's signature colors.
If Japanese calligraphy is your thing, the next two 59Fiftys feature that in tonal black embroidery and references to episodes and motifs from the original series. The first references the pivotal episode After Running Away with the title embroidered in kanji on front, and the next fitted features a print of Japan against a starscape with black embroidery.
The orange and black tiger stripe colorway is actually a hook to the infamous AT field used by the EVA mecha in the franchise and features an embroidered spear across the front and side panels.
The last customized fitted features a full color, all over sublimated print of a scene from the anime with lead character Shinji Ikari looking out over a hazy New Tokyo City and 'Evangelion 1.0' embroidered across the back.
