2025-26 Spring


Through a special connection,

45R crossed paths with French photographer Olivier Kervern, marking the beginning of our season visuals.

Using an old Japanese film camera, Olivier’s analog approach resonates beautifully with 45R’s own handcrafted spirit — together capturing images that feel like quiet scenes from a film.

This shoot took place in Matsumoto Nagano

Starting from a mountain lodge that has stood since the 1960s, Olivier captured the landscape just as it was — filled with the timeless mix of mountaineers and young travelers that still lingers there today.

From this wonderful connection was born a new expression of the 45R world — familiar, yet with a touch of something unexpected.

Please enjoy this special story woven through film, light, and craftsmanship.
