One Block Down works in collaboration with RefrigiWear on a new collection of apparel that is designed for the Winter season. The joint capsule features reworked items including the cut and fit of existing pieces such as the Iron Tuff jacket and vest, the leather gloves, and hoodies -- all of which are done in a weatherized finish.
The color palette includes black, white, and octane, with accents in the form of reflective stitching details and logo patches for some branding details. A highlight includes the gloves which now boast a dynamic puffy shape that provides comfort and warmth during the colder seasons. The entire range is set to launch online officially on December 21st.
