“When talking about the Black Box, I will try to get as in-depth as possible. I feel the best way to do that is to describe it from the inside, out. A proper product dissection if you will.
The actual product being presented is a black crewneck sweatshirt adorned with our Japanese logo embroidered on the front left chest and custom embroidered tags on the inside back of the neck line. The patch will be modeled after our holographic stickers of the same logo and the backing of the patches will be made of Italian lambskin with a cracked film finish, giving it that same iridescent / holographic look.
These will come in sizes ranging from Small to X-Large and they will be a dry clean only sweatshirt. Due to exclusivity and cost, each sweater will also be made-to-order!
Now on to the packaging, which in my opinion, has slowly become more and more of a work of art, and it’s all pieced together by hand.
Beginning with the black gift box (hence the name). On the outside, the top of the box features the holographic Japanese logo placed in the center and nothing more. A minimalist’s dream; simple yet elegant.
The bottom of the box will display only the size of the sweater with a small holographic sticker placed at the center of the bottom edge.
And finally, before going inside, the sides are left as is aside from the two small holographic seals on the left and right sides of the box!
Upon opening the box, the first thing you may see is a black envelope sitting on top of the sweatshirt wrapped in iridescent plastic. I’ll get to that. First, I want to talk about the inside of the box cover. When you open the box, you’ll turn the cover over to see a 6 x 6 in. holographic label detailing, by hand, the box number (1-50 of 50 etc.), the production date (from the moment the embroidery begins) and a blank space for Tiana and I to sign as we approve each box! The label will also include the product title and a “dry clean only” instruction.
You may also notice inside the cover that the top and bottom sides include a little holographic tab - these secret tabs can be folded out [after opening] for an easier way to open and close the box!
Back to the black envelope! When you open the box, there is a black hand written “Thank you” card from Tiana & I inside of a black envelope placed on top of the wrapped sweatshirt. Also inside the envelope is a holographic sticker of our Japanese logo plus a card with a special discount code and a QR code exclusively for those who purchase the Black Box! The special discount code will be valid site wide and the QR code, when scanned, will take you to a secret Kaiju Bee shop link. Again, exclusive only to those who purchase the Black Box. (This hidden shop will include new exclusive items and a few items of limited quantity currently in our public shop will be moved here as well. ALL orders placed after the New Year [1.1.26] will also receive the QR code card with their purchase!)
Under the card, as mentioned before, lies the sweater. Folded neatly and wrapped in a beautiful iridescent opal plastic. This plastic wrap will be glued to the inside bottom of the box, allowing you to easily wrap the sweatshirt back up and store it safely as the box is not only a work of art - but a truly functional place to store the art itself! Much like a painting kept in a gallery or museum.
I know the price tag on this is on the higher end, but this is in fact a high-end and extremely limited piece of clothing! Not only does it come with some of its own little perks, but like I’ve said before, we did this all by hand.” - Kaiju Bee Blog Post, “My Head Is A Piñata” 10/26/25 by Alex Wagner
