Harajuku fashion label Comfy Outdoor Garment works in collaboration with Hong Kong-based retail label 432Hz on a new collection of wearables that are designed with inspiration drawn from the world of hiking. The two brands join heads to launch a capsule of unique pieces that are spotlighted by the progressive fabric use that prepares them for any outdoor experience.
The collection is headed by the Activity shorts, which are a staple item in the roster of Comfy Outdoor Garment. It is made from a very breathable stretch polyester material and has a belt that offers a touch of adjustability before it is finished with the 432Hz branding detail applied through embroidery as a nod to both contributing brands.
