Bounty Hunter have just dropped a collaborative tee which brings together the talents of San Jose based tattooist Horitaka and Chor Kakkoii from Osaka’s Three Tides tattoo parlor.
Horitaka (Takahiro Kitamura) is apprentice to Japanese master tattooist Horiyoshi III. He runs San Hose’s ‘State of Grace’ tattoo parlor and has brought the awesome intricacies of traditional Japanese tattoo art to the West through his work and a number of publications on the subject. He has also recently collaborated with Nike SB on their ‘Four Guardians’ pack.
Three Tides is regarded as one of Japan’s finest tattoo parlors. Check out some great pics of the inside taken by Erik Brunetti on his FUCT blog.
Check out more pictures of the tee below, thanks to BXH and Three Tides.
BXH is also supporting a number of events around the Japanese release of ‘Underway is the Only Way’, the new book by Horitaka and Grime which features interviews and photos with some of the leading names in the tattoo world, including:
