The collaboration between Japanese retailer Uniqlo and Eames Office is back for a second season. Comprising graphic T-shirts and bags inspired by the work of Ray and Charles Eames, the collection features patterns designed by the late Eameses released under Uniqlo’s art-inspired SPRZ NY (Surprise New York) brand. The work of Andy Warhol, Keith Haring, and others have made appearances on Uniqlo clothing.

For fans of the legendary American design duo, there’s plenty to cop. Some of their iconic chairs—the upholstered lounge chair, molded plywood dining chair, and wire chair, for example—are rendered in silhouette on tees and a fabric foldable tote bag. Other designs include an illustration of the Hang-It-All hooks and the elephant seat.

SPRZ NY Eames is available online and in stores. Take a full look at the collection here.
