Hong Kong streetwear brand RAW EMOTIONS dives into its archives to launch its latest offering for the season. The iconic Tibetan Tiger Mascot design comes in the shape of a rug. This stems from old tradition, where splayed tiger rugs were used as a piece of meditation that symbolizes power and authority.
The rugs have since garnered attention at a wide scale due to the intricate and evocative aesthetic of the piece. There are a few colorways of the rug throughout the years and most recently, the brand launched its original colorway. This dates back to 2017 and it is offered in classic nylon materials or a New Zealand wool iteration of the same design.
