The seasonal collection is made for the Spring/Summer 2022 season and is designed as a bright and colorful representation that exists between nature in a European city. Items in the range include tees with seagull and mousetrap graphics along with vests that are accented with swans or cardigans designed with camo prints. There are also tie-dye jogging suits for a bright touch and a functional rib vest that has reversible sensibilities and sustainability as it is crafted from recycled water bottles.
