With music from Deer Tick, the video lookbook showcases the carefree attitude of sea-side road trips. The line features preppy prints, pastels and modern tailoring. Memorable pieces include swim trunks with rising hems, color-blocked chinos and bright tanks. Set in Coney Island, the video has a heavily nostalgic tone. The retro feel meets in conjunction with the laid-back styling perfectly.
Originated in 1955, the American brand has made a booming comeback. Bragging the first and most popular golf-tee design, the 55 polo shirt has become iconic.
