PROLETA RE ART works together with the special WILDSIDE initiative by Yohji Yamamoto as the designer creates an expressionist space to produce limited goods alongside a diverse selection of creative minds. So far, WILDSIDE has worked with street names such as AMBUSH, Hysteric Glamore, and Needles.
This time, it taps PROLETA RE ART to work on a special one-of-one iteration of the brand's UROBOROS denim. This stems from the creative's careful craft of beauty through workwear shapes and designs. It uses traditional boro repair techniques and has the POUR HOMME denim detailed entirely in made-in-USA vintage bandanas that are notably an old indigo-dyed cloth. Every single one was custom stitched onto the denim and features hand-finished details.
