Tea Parlor-Honoring Streetwear

Rowing Blazers Celebrates Nom Wah With an Apparel Series

Nom Wah is an iconic tea parlor and bakery that first opened its doors in 1920 -- now Rowing Blazers celebrates the spot with a selection of streetwear designs. Nom Wah is recognized for its almond cookies and traditional mooncakes -- since 2011, Wilson Tang took over and took it to an angle that spotlights dim sum foods. Rowing Blazers honors Nom Wah with a three-piece collection that features staple silhouettes.

The range highlights long sleeve shirts, a rugby shirt, and a cap. The cap is available in three colorway options, the long sleeve shirt comes in two colorways, and the rugby shirt arrives in a bright yellow hue. All of the pieces are accented with graphic prints referencing Nom Wah.
