PaperBoy Paris is a hybrid brand that is both a streetwear label and a restaurant, functioning in different corporate realms simultaneously. The brand now works in collaboration with DISTANCE on a special collection in hopes to support the local Parisian community during what is now the second COVID-19 lockdown the city is going through.
The two are located near one another in the heart of the city. Both of the brands join forces to create a collaborative graphic tee that boasts co-branded details. The front of the piece features the classic PaperBoy Paris emblem and the back of the piece features DISTANCE branding details. The shirt comes with a full capsule that includes a jacket, a bag, and a cap.
