Contemporary fashion label HUMAN MADE works in collaboration with streetwear imprint Girls Don't Cry on a capsule collection entitled '1928 Kyoto.' The joint initiative is true to its namesake as it is exclusively available at the 'HUMAN MADE 1928' location in Kyoto.
The latest capsule highlights bold blue as the predominant hue in place of the usual red. It decorates co-designed graphics that nod to both contributing brands across a series of tees, bags, hoodies, and a plethora of accessory options. The range includes the HUMAN MADE Pizza hoodie, the two different sizes of canvas totes, a container, keychains, pains, stickers, phone cases, socks, mugs, and more. All of the goods translate Verdy's design language, exploring different themes with both of the brand's logos.
