Fashion label and retailer Reigning Champ introduces its latest collection project that boasts the name Legacy of Slub. It takes the premium 1 x 1 Slub fabric as the main inspiration, which originated during the mid-2000s for its wings+horns label that is now discontinued.
The previous sibling label was in the works for 2 decades and featured a selection of modern menswear silhouettes that were inspired by Japanese craftsmanship. It focused on high-quality fabrics and designs that highlighted the Canadian landscape. To continue on that, the brand delivers three signature silhouettes from wings+horns. This includes the fabric done in white, black, grey, and navy options -- dropping short and long sleeved tops and half-buttoned Henley shirts.
