The legendary Alfred Hitchcock was a masterful story teller.

The 2007 Fall/Collection finds its basis in two distinct elements such as American gangs of the 1800s such as the The Dead Rabbits, the Know Nothings and the Bowery Boys. These gangs represented an iconic sense of allegiance and style which formed part of the inspiration for this collection. Secondary inspiration was derived from The Shadow Conspiracy’s love of horror movies such as the classic Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde. They had a vision of a person overcome with madness who ironically was only kept in check with his dual personality. This formed the foundation of their ad campaign.
This latest collection from Shadow Conspiracy will be available at the following retailers Union NY, Greyone, In4mation, Dark Initiative, 5&A Dime, Digital Gravel, Beta, East West, Turn Table Lab, Fat Lace, Pedestrian, El Mercado, Workmens, True East, The Grandeur and Goliath.
