The latest collaboration between Denim Tears and Stüssy is aptly named Stüssy Tears. The streetwear combines two prominent inspirations—the grungy elements of the 90s with the roots of Denim Tears founder Tremaine Emory who grew up in Jamaica, Queens, New York City. From knitted silhouettes and camo hunting jackets to "an array of Denim Tears-infused accessories" and denim jackets adorned with logos, the Stüssy Tears collaboration definitely boasts some interesting pieces for the contemporary streetwear fan. This collection officially dropped online on December 9th, 2022.
It has been a relatively busy season of partnership for Tremaine Emory who recently revealed another big collaboration in the works—this one is with Dior and is named 'Dior Tears.'
