One of video gaming’s most loveable violent assassins is getting his fashion choices immortalized by Japanese fashion label Super Groupies. The various officially licensed articles are up for pre-order but will only be produced if enough are spoken for.

Up on offer are replicas of his No More Heroes 1 jacket and sunglasses. That is to say, the default jacket and sunglasses because you could trade them out for new designs as you progressed through the game. There’s also a watch adorned with the shattered star design, but I don’t think Travis ever wore one. He wore a sweatband instead.

Super Groupies previously released a replica of the No More Heroes 3 jacket, but that is currently sold out.

What I find amusing about this is that I always thought Travis Touchdown dressed in a way that looked cool to him but nobody else. That’s always how I read the character. He often speaks very dramatically in near nonsensical ways while actually being rather pathetic. He’s all front, is what I’m saying.

The jacket on offer is also synthetic leather, probably because the cost of a real leather version would be astronomical, and it already isn’t cheap. However, it results in the jacket looking a lot lighter than the one Travis wears in the first game. His looks very stiff (perhaps due to the Wii’s inability to render complex material physics), whereas this appears a lot softer.

I also don’t think I’d be able to pull it off very well. I have the height, and a high collar would help hide my unimpressive neck and jawline, but my typically slouching posture wouldn’t go well with its lines. I also think that a leather jacket is something you need to try on before buying, which isn’t really possible online. However, if you were to buy it for me, I would definitely wear it. Just saying.

The No More Heroes 1 jacket can be preordered for $260, while the sunglasses are $80.
