Streetwear imprint Chrome Hearts introduces the 1988 Hoodie, which is a stealthy design exclusively dropping online. The hoodie is made with inspiration from the year that the brand was first founded in Los Angeles by Richard Stark. Now, his family still looks over the brand including John Bowman and silversmith Leonard Kamhout.
Leonard Kamhout is the creative mind behind the brand's iconic sterling silver grommets and accents that are seen on the first leather jackets. The recent drop is detailed with the brand's name along the sleeves in white to stand out against the black base foundation -- this is done in the signature font. This graphic is also seen on the front on the right side, rounded out by sterling silver grommets.
