History

Founded in Japan and operated by Wave International, GOA became a staple of the Shibuya street fashion scene during the 2000s. It played a significant role in the Military-Ethnic trend, catering to the Gyaru-o and Onee-gyaru subcultures. The brand was known for its distinctive fur-trimmed parkas and layered styling. Despite its cultural influence on Japanese youth fashion, the brand ceased operations in 2018, marking the end of its decade-long presence in the industry.
