Todd Snyder and Gerry Beckley work in collaboration on a new exclusive Summer '22 collection for the warmer season of the year. The duo celebrates Americana culture as Beckley comes from the rock band AMERICA and Todd Snyder has focused on American culture throughout his designs. The newest capsule spotlights personal images on the road by Beckley that are seen adorning the streetwear items such as tees and hoodies.
The photographs were captured on tour and also come with lifestyle visuals that include a set of palm trees and other elements of nature and touring. Snyder honors Beckley, stating that "Gerry is this total style maven – cars, clothes, eyewear. He’ll email me out of the blue to suggest a classic item we should make, and his photographs are an extension of this unique point of view [...] He makes normal things look artful and his pictures are modern takes that get us to reconsider places we might otherwise take for granted,"
