OFFICIAL – Neu Camp Series – Mont Strada Collezione

Branching out from the usual baseball cap form.  OFFICIAL (Official Crown of Laurel) created the Neu Camp line, an updated take on the classic 5-panel or front panel caps.  By addressing the issues that long affected the 5-panel cap design’s declining popularity, such as stiff, molded visor, excess tightness, and unsightly seams.  Designers at OFFICIAL re-define the standards to the 5-panel cap form:

– A 2.5 mm additional depth which eliminates the excessive tightness and an updated fit.
– Flat visor with eight stitch lines instead of the average 3.
– Mont Strada Collezione headband label and adjustable strap

In addition, the Neu Camp Series will debut the new OFFICIAL label constructed from  PVC and embossed on the bottom right of the front panel.  The OFFICIAL – Neu Camp Series – Mont Strada Collezione will be available soon at OFFICIAL online store and selected retail locations worldwide.

Dissizit Collaboration T-Shirts – Slick & Everlast

Dissizit presents some strong new collaboration t-shirts. The first one is with Slick. His spray can character finds his new favorite spot. Really nice work on the graphic and the print is also of very high quality.

The second one is a collaboration with Martyr Inc. and with Everlast. Unlike the other design, we have here a strong social message behind the design, which is also executed nicely. Expect these to be released soon.
