The cross over of British brand Fred Perry and Japanese label Comme des Garcons often yields some interesting pieces. The name Fred Perry has always held a strong allegiance to the past with collection after collection of well design clothing. On the other hand, although Comme des Garcons’ earlier collections had a much more avant-garde style to them, the combination of these two brands results in some re-inspired classics. A look at the 2007 Fall/Winter Collection sees some knit pieces alongside jackets and shoes.

The hustle, whether it be on the streets, at the office or on the courts, is the embodiment of Clockers. This debut collection from Clockers is a tribute for all those hard workers out there. Those smart enough to negotiate around time constraints all the meanwhile keeping things going is what Clockers is all about.
Seen here are the Crash and Burn tee, and the Krueger tee. The Kruger-esque tee symbolizes that there is no advancement in sleep (especially in excess) and finally the Crash and Burn tee is inspired by the original Beastie Boys album cover art from their debut album “License to Ill”. Keeping in tune with their theme, the original intentions of the “License to Ill” cover art was to showcase the Rock n’ Roll lifestyle as a constant hustle.
Although initial reactions maybe to associate Clockers with baseball but in reality the ability to mix business with pleasure is the underlying theme which was perhaps overlooked. Look for Clockers to start shipping out in the third week of September.
