The new FTP Spring/Summer 2019 collection follows the same theme as the rebellious streetwear imprint usually follows. It has strong graphics and a language that goes against the system -- the name of the imprint also stands for 'Fuck the Population.'
In terms of the silhouettes, it boasts traditional streetwear shapes, delivering hoodies, tees, jackets, and a selection of accessories for the season. The FTP branding is also prominent throughout the entire range, with the additional details of checker pattern and stripe designs. It also takes on its own iteration of some iconic motifs including the Polo bear and the MLB World Series Champion top. Some of the standout items in the range spotlight the color-blocking leather jacket and the "666" varsity jacket.
