Maharishi and their more middle-market MHI by Maharishi have both delivered a batch goods for the Autumn/Winter 2009 season. Taking cues from the stock market crash, excessive wealth, TARP money and government bailouts, MHI by Maharishi presents a series of concept-driven, printed-based garments. The higher-end Maharishi line showcases an acute attention to detail with distinct military inspiration. As always, quality is on par. Now in store at EASTWESTWORLDWIDE.

More looks at the MHI by Maharishi and Maharishi Autumn/Winter 2009 Collection after the jump.

We get a first look at the MHI Spring/Summer 2010 “Headhunter” Collection. Carri Munden from Cassette Playa is responsible for the styling of the lookbook. Both all-over print, large graphics and more subtle chambray styles make up the collection.

After giving you yesterday an exclusive look at the Maharishi Autumn/Winter 2008 collection, we show you today stand out pieces of their more street inspired MHI collection.

MHI offers as part of their new collection some quality jackets, pants, shirts, hoodies, as well as accessories. The bags in the new collection are looking really good.

Part of the collection has already been delivered to stores, but most of what we show you here is coming out in the next months.

It seems a bit early, but for some reason MHI will be releasing a couple of Spring/Summer 2009 items in Japan in the near future. Most interesting we found the Viet Slip-On. 

Coming in two canvas colorways, the shoe is already special for being a mid top slip-on, something one only sees rarely. Also the closing mechanism is something new to us. The choice of materials and colors is very balanced, making the Viet Slip-On a model to be looking out for.

Dedue will get them in on the 24th of September.
