As always, Raised By Wolves also presents a solid selection of headware including both camp caps and trucker hats.

A Bathing Ape 2013 Spring/Summer “Hieroglyph camo” Collection

A Bathing Ape alongside the likes of maharishi have been important entities into reappropriation of camouflage as fashion. Since it’s original 1st CAMO right around the brand’s inception, camouflage has long been a persistent theme within the Japanese heavyweight’s DNA. A latest appropriation comes in the form of ”HIEROGLYPH CAMO” which follows some familiar BAPE color schemes in traditional army green, blue and pink. The collection available through apparel and accessories is available now at BAPE STORES across Asia and soon to hit BAPE STORE NYC.

Williams and Pharrel are “BBC Black” & a GQ Behind the Tee

Mark McNairy and Pharrell Williams are back at it and under the Billionaire Boys Club umbrella, present the new BBC Black Capsule Collection. Military technical fabrics are used through-out the tight line-up and fused into classic streetwear items, that include varsity jackets, baseball jerseys, t-shirts, shirts, caps and more. With McNairy designing the line, we are not surprised about the military inspiration and if you have watched Pharrell’s dressing style over the years, his love for camouflage and everything military has also always been rather obvious, making this latest collaborative effort rather natural. Next to their collaborative Bee Line Collection, this marks a nice and clean addition.

Fred Perry & Christopher Raeburn 2013 Spring/Summer Capsule collection is a Blank Canvas & Behind the Tee with Christopher

Fred Perry & Christopher Raeburn 2013 Spring/Summer Capsule collection is a Blank Canvas & Behind the Tee with Christopher

For Spring/Summer 2013 Fred Perry has announced a new Blank Canvas Capsule Collection with British designer Christopher Raeburn. Known for his heavy military inspiration in all of his designs, it comes without any surprise that the Fred Perry x Christopher Raeburn Blank Canvas line uses various camouflage patterns.

The American Issue Desert camouflage was specifically designed as an interference pattern for use during the early 90s, one that would interrupt the pixelated images of first generation night vision services. . The Schneetarn East German camouflage also known as ‘snowy pines’ is an unusual two-colour winter camouflage developed by a mountain warfare school first trialled in the 60s. Finally, the German Raindrop camouflage is a strong graphic reference from the 60s and 70s, less effective as an actual camouflage because at close range the colours would blend together.

All shirts feature tipping on the collar, in military green and orange plus an original surplus fabric woven patch pocket with a Fred Perry and Christopher Raeburn embroidery.

Here below you find an interview with the designer about the project.

All polo shirts from the collection are now available in all Fred Perry Laurel Wreath shops and online here.
