Fledgling LA imprint SURF IS DEAD has joined forces with Melbourne label Bow3ry on a striking range of apparel. The co-branded 2017 summer capsule entitled “Beach is Closed” is packed with graphics-heavy hoodies, T-shirts, and accessories swathed in vibrant hues such as green, lavender, yellow, orange, white, and black. Head-turning items from the range include the “Going for a Dip” tee, “Asleep in the Coffin” long-sleeve, and “Go Away” hoodie.

“I focused on a dystopian paradise where the twisted has become everyday living,” said Chris Josol of SURF IS DEAD. “When there’s no more room in the streets the beach will be the final port. A mutated party zone for vice and violence. The beach is closed. Locals only.”

View the lookbook above and head over to SURF IS DEAD’s official website to purchase all pieces. Prices range between $40 USD and $75 USD.
