IM MEN turns the takeaway cup into TO GO, a leather accessory arriving November 1
TO GO borrows the shape of a takeaway coffee cup for a leather small-item holder with a shoulder strap, offered in white, beige and black at ¥36,300 in Japan.
A takeaway coffee cup is the starting point for TO GO, a new IM MEN accessory. The familiar silhouette becomes a leather holder for small belongings, with a strap that moves the object from the hand to the shoulder.
The Japanese release is scheduled for November 1, 2026, at selected directly operated stores and the official online store. White, beige and black versions are priced at ¥36,300 each. The interest lies in the change of material and purpose: this is an accessory, rather than a vessel for a drink.
Key details
TO GO is an IM MEN leather holder for small belongings, inspired by a takeaway coffee cup.
The planned Japanese release is November 1; white, beige and black versions cost ¥36,300 each and include a shoulder strap.
Listed locations include Aoyama, Ginza / 442, Kyoto, Semba and the relevant Hankyu MEN’S OSAKA store, plus the official online store. This does not establish availability or delivery in Taiwan.
A familiar outline, a different material
Rather than reproducing the whole coffee-drinking setting, TO GO extracts the cup silhouette and gives it a leather expression. A shape associated with a passing daily gesture becomes something to wear, making the difference between the original object and its new purpose part of the design.
One way to look at it is to recognize the everyday reference first, then examine how it works outside that setting. The body outline, strap attachment and contrast between the three neutral colours offer details to compare without treating playfulness as a matter of heavy decoration.

Three neutral colours keep the shape visible
White, beige and black place the choice in the relationship between light, dark and the rest of an outfit. A light version may stand out beside a dark coat, while black can connect with existing dark accessories. These are styling considerations, not differences in function between colours.
The included strap makes this more than an object to leave on a desk. When considering it, look at where the strap sits over outerwear, the scale of the holder against clothing and how you usually reach for small items. Photographs explain the silhouette but do not establish usable capacity or wearing comfort.

Check the use and purchase conditions before release
The listed Japanese channels include IM MEN / AOYAMA, ISSEY MIYAKE GINZA / 442, ISSEY MIYAKE KYOTO, ISSEY MIYAKE SEMBA and the relevant Hankyu MEN’S OSAKA location, as well as the official online store. Stock and opening information need to be checked for each location.
If buying for travel or a daily commute, start with the items you intend to carry and compare them with the actual dimensions, opening and care instructions. A coffee-cup reference does not make this drinkware, and leather care or water exposure cannot be inferred from a picture. Consider it as a small-item holder and styling accessory.
