SSUR*PLUS, a streetwear label that was founded by Ruslan Karablin, recently released a selection of apparel that features graphics which honor late actor and martial artist legend Bruce Lee.
A number of the graphics feature shots of Bruce Lee in action, while others simply state phrases like "DRAGON SEEKS PATH," "DON'T THINK," "FEEL" and "DRAGON." These phrases are written in bold sans serif lettering which gives the apparel a statement look.
The boldness of the lettering works in tandem with the bright colors of the fabric that the clothing is constructed from, with hues of yellow, orange and blue used throughout the new SSUR*PLUS collection. All of the pieces are set to become available at select retailers starting February 18th.
