Yeah, it sucks that you likely couldn’t afford, or even checkout, some rare pairs of Louis Vuitton Air Force 1s that dropped yesterday. But trust us, your wallet is thankful that you didn’t spend $2,750 on a pair of luxury designer sneakers. Now, you can either save that hard earned money for more important things in life or use it towards copping some great new releases.
Travis Scott has released new Cactus Jack merch this week to coincide with the release of his hyped “Reverse Mocha” Air Jordan 1 Low. Barriers is set to release a collaboration with Jackie Robinson’s estate this weekend. Maharishi has collaborated on a special capsule with the revered New York City graffiti crew Irak. And Frank Ocean has finally delivered a new collection of jewelry for Homer.
Check out details on how to cop these releases, and others from Stone Island, Huf, Alex Mill and more, below.
Release Date: July 21
Where to Buy It: bloomfield.works
Price: TBD
Bloomfield.Works returns with a new collection this week inspired by Dancehall. Titled “Wake The Town,” pieces throughout the collection tap into the energy, iconography, and music of reggae. Graphic T-shirts, tote bags, camp collar shirts, sweatshorts, and long sleeve T-shirts will be available. A New York City-based label founded by Warren Cochrane, the collection is deeply inspired by the founder’s own Jamaican roots. The collection’s title is inspired by the lyrics of Buju Banton and T-shirts and tote bags make apt references to Jamaican selectors. Standouts within the line include an air-brushed long sleeve T-shirt graphic of ackee—Jamaica’s national fruit—and camp collar T-shirts featuring all-over print illustrations of Marcus Garvey with a quote that reads “Look for me in the whirlwind.” The quote is from a famous 1925 letter that Garvey wrote from a prison cell in Atlanta after the FBI incarcerated Garvey on dubious mail fraud charges before President Calvin Coolidge commuted his sentence and deported him to Jamaica in 1927.
