As Lunar New Year approaches on February 17, Anti Social Social Club (ASSC) is introducing a limited-edition Lunar New Year capsule to mark the Year of the Horse. Drawing inspiration from the Fire Horse, a symbol of intensity, momentum, and decisive change, the collection features a bold horse graphic across the brand’s core tees and hoodies, complemented by motion-blur typography that conveys speed and movement.
Staying true to ASSC’s signature tone, the drop also incorporates the brand’s familiar "NEW YEAR. OLD ME" messaging. The designs showcase a prominent galloping horse graphic on the back, symbolizing forward drive and transformation, with "Year of the Horse" branding on the front to highlight the Lunar New Year theme.
