Clothing brand Fathom’s new line of Final Fantasy VII-themed apparel items sold out almost immediately after it went up for order in Japan. The company announced that it’s working on a restock. At the moment, further orders for the Fathom FFVII Tifa apparel are paused, but will resume once stock is arranged.
Fathom is a Japanese streetwear brand, with a distinctive logo featuring a cartoon pin-up model resting on the brand’s text. Produced in collaboration with Square Enix, the Final Fantasy VII Fathom Tifa apparel swaps the pin-up model with FFVII heroine Tifa Lockhart. Fathom has done tie-ins with other designer labels and fashion brands before, including designer Anwar Carrots and Diaspora Skateboards, but the Final Fantasy VII collaboration is one of its first with a video game.
The design appears on t-shirts, track pants, and jackets, and went on sale on March 1, 2023 at Fathom’s Hiroshima store, as well as on the PARCO Online Store. Some items, like a long-sleeved t-shirt, cost as much as 8,580 Yen (about $63 USD). Nevertheless, they immediately sold out, causing the company to announce an impending resupply of the Fathom Tifa apparel at a later date.
According to Fathom’s Twitter account, the company anticipates a restock to become available at physical retail stores and via PARCO in mid-March 2023.
Final Fantasy VII Remake is available on PS4, PS5, and PC.
