The recent surge in vintage workwear-inspired garments has resulted in more flannels and hair, beard hair that is, than the grunge scene in the early nineties. Unfortunately, we will now face the inevitable uprising of fabricated “authenticity” – the complete opposite of what newly established Montreal retailer, Tate + Yoko, brings to the tanker desk. Translated from Japanese to mean Warp + Weft, the two directions of yarn that weave denim, Tate + Yoko houses exclusive Canadian and Japanese brands in a refreshing showroom accented with vintage industrial metal. Completing the authentic aesthetic with a record player blasting out rockabilly tunes from the 1950s and a 1940s Pepsi fridge stocked with Japanese Ramune soda, the retailer located in Montreal’s garment district will also support a webstore. Stay tuned as HYPEBEAST will surely keep you informed of Tate + Yoko’s latest news, including some collaborations with well-known brands in the near future.
