The Unveiling of North Face X KAWS

March 01, 2022

What's better than a North Face Nuptse jacket for the winter? There's only one answer — The North Face and KAWS collaborated Nuptse jacket. This new collaboration reinterprets the 1996 Nuptse jacket with a flair of revived energy and contemporary design. With the very brick weather of the east coast, leaving you confused by Fool's Spring and caught in the snow of Third Winter — this collaboration comes just in time. A rule of thumb that we all know when undergoing such hellish, or the contrary, temperatures is to put on those thermals, those hoodies, and those puffer jackets. Yet, in theory, we will all end up camouflaging with our black Nuptse jackets: so, what's a KAWS version to keep you standing out?

Each piece blurs the line with visionary prints and high-tech pieces that inspire the world and dethrone the serious. The first release of the collection has been made available online at richandhanc.com, and other retailers such as Dover Street Market, END Clothing, Slam Jam, KITH, and more.

Louis Vuitton Pre-Fall 25 Menswear by Pharrell Williams

June 02, 2025

Louis Vuitton takes us on a journey that embarks on a cross-continental cruise from Paris to Miami, seeing the journey as the destination. From cast-off, through the voyage to the formal arrival this collection traces the recreational routes of the dandy dressing core to the House Men's proposal through a contemporary lens. For the modern traveler who vacations via yacht and sports car, respects tradition, as well as the evolution of dress codes.

In its transition across the sea, it illustrates the LVERS philosophy at the heart of the Louis Vuitton Studio Prêt-à-Porter Homme binding together its values and global community from Paris to Miami and everywhere in between. Through these chapters, we explore Dandy downtime, The voyage and The destination.

The Cruise to Resort adapts dandy's voyage from the sea to the sand, saluting tailoring and classic sportswear through the transit wardrobe. In the second chapter, the arrival wardrobe gets ready for the beach and pool culture that Miami is known for. Taking inspiration from naval codes and the textures of plush ship's interiors, Jazz Age silhouettes are revitalised within this collection.
