Streetwear imprint A-COLD-WALL* introduces its latest GLARE collection designed specifically for the Fall/Winter 2018 season. The new capsule showcases a series of utility apparel, staying aligned with the usual offerings of elevated metallic touches. Similar to the name of the capsule, the apparel options boast reflective accents with some strong silver statement pieces accompanied by hues of black, stone, and purple. The silhouettes feature trousers, vests, sweaters, and jackets -- all of which are clean cut to retain a simplistic structure.
The highlighting component is the blended construction of technical nylon and Tyvek, joined to create functional shapes. Notably, 3D methods are also used in creating the pigment-informed jersey pieces. A standout item in the GLARE collection is the long silver trench coat with reverse branding details on the back. The seasonal capsule is set to drop online at A-COLD-WALL* on December 9th.
