Jun Takahashi's UNDERCOVER's menswear diffusion label JohnUNDERCOVER launches its special Polo Bear series for the season. The capsule tweaks some classic designs from an angle that explores horror thees as the dapper Polo Bear is transformed into a more rugged version of himself.
For example, one of the tees feature "JOHN" branding accompanied by a punk-informed bear figure that is holding a brain dripping with blood under his left arm. Star Wars also serves as an inspiration on one of the graphics as there is a Jawa-like character adorning the robes holding a Bear head that has been severed under his arm. Additional details of the capsule include colorful pocket tees, raw hemming on the sleeves and bottoms for a slightly deconstructed rugged look, and branded caps that round out the range.
