I’m truly happy to see this milestone celebrated through such a stylish and meaningful T-shirt — carefully made in Japan and created in collaboration with YSY, a talented French artist known worldwide. This project reflects my personal journey and pays tribute to Japanese horse racing.

2000V JAPAN (black)
Made in Japan 100% cotton short-sleeve T-shirt, inspired by the colors and motifs of horse racing.¥13,970Tax Included (税込)
Commemorating horse racing jockey Christophe Lemaire's 2,000th JRA win in Japan (Tokyo Racecourse on April 26, 2025), this made in Japan T-shirt is limited to 200 pieces only.
The design, a creation by French artist YSY, features the "Y-CON" character of Lemaire, with the French word "STRATEGE" (conqueror, tactician), chosen by fan vote, on the blindfold, symbolizing jockey Lemaire's strategic thinking.
The background features abstract patterns from the racing uniforms worn by Lemaire in Japan, and the base colour is red, reminiscent of the Japanese flag.
The overall design is inspired by the commemorative panel photo that is taken in front of the press when a jockey achieves a milestone victory. This time, instead of actually holding the panel, the two horses (53 G1 victories, 5 MVJ awards) surround Lemaire on either side, making it look as if they are supporting the panel.
