The weapon that appears in the Gundam series, the white base, is collaged upon an abstract background and artwork of Mr. Kosuke Kawamura which has the impression of hiding the Musha Gundam, is used on the entire surface. The back of the upper collar is a red colour reminiscent of the military uniform of the Earth Federation Army, with an embroidered emblem of the Earth Federation Army. In addition, the back of the lapel is made of leather. Mainly using metal buttons, which is a fusion of POGGYTHEMAN's typical tailored style and the design of the collaboration.
