■Wristwatch Co-Developed with Citizen Watch Debuts! A Meticulously Crafted Piece Featuring FamilyMart Colors!

"Convenience Wear" is FamilyMart's original apparel brand, developed in collaboration with fashion designer Hiromichi Ochiai, under the concept of "Good Materials, Good Technology, Good Design." Since its launch in 2021, its accessibility, convenience, and reliable quality have been well-received, creating a new culture of purchasing clothing at convenience stores. In February 2026, the brand aired its first TV commercial, challenging new possibilities by expressing the world of Convenience Wear with large-scale visual beauty.

This time, as a highlight product for Spring/Summer 2026, the brand will release its first-ever wristwatch. Developed jointly with Citizen Watch Co., Ltd., a world-renowned Japanese watch manufacturer, it is meticulously crafted down to the smallest detail. It is also size-adjustable, making it suitable for a wide range of wearers, from children to adults. In addition, the popular shorts, which are well-received every year, will feature a new orange color perfect for the warmer seasons. The lineup of miscellaneous goods will also be enhanced, with new colors for sandals and the convenient all-weather mini umbrella, as well as new colors for the even lighter all-weather lightweight slim umbrella.
