In Focus: G-STAR RAW RESEARCH

Last month, we were invited inside the G-STAR headquarters to explore the archives and uncover the foundations of their innovation. At Maha Amsterdam, we’ve always been drawn to brands that push beyond the expected. G-STAR RAW does exactly that with RAW RESEARCH: a space where the future of denim is continuously redefined. 

RAW RESEARCH isn’t just a collection. It’s an ongoing dialogue between innovation and heritage. A place where raw denim DNA meets progressive design thinking, resulting in pieces that feel both grounded and forward. For this chapter, creative direction comes from Lisi Herrebrugh and Rushemy Botter. Their approach starts at the source: diving deep into the G-STAR archives and reworking iconic references like the G-STAR Elwood. What begins as nostalgia evolves into something sharper: a recalibration of classic codes for today. 

The result is a collection that lives in the tension between past and present. Familiar, but re-engineered. RAW RESEARCH strips denim back to its core and rebuilds it with intention: precision cuts, articulated fits, and a focus on movement and durability. Expect high slit selvedge skirts, oversized shirts, cropped selvedge jeans, and functional trucker jackets, each piece designed with a technical mindset and built to last.

This weekend, G-STAR takes over Maha Amsterdam.⁠ At the Maha Amsterdam store you can explore the first drop of the pinnacle G-STAR Raw Research collection - available for the very first time.⁠

The selection is presented alongside Raw Prouvé Vitra chairs, rare G-STAR books from the archive, and exclusive imagery - creating an immersive G-STAR experience in the heart of Amsterdam.⁠

Drop by the café or store this weekend to discover the collection and explore the world of G-STAR.⁠ ⁠
