Following up on its collaboration with Converse, Babylon LA reveals its latest campaign for the fall/winter season. Drawing inspiration from the street culture of South Africa, the Babylon team fused the uniqueness of the country with the authenticity of its Southern California skating roots. The lineup includes tie-dyed tees featuring bold graphics, a mineral washed long-sleeve tee, an all-over print hoodie constructed with 21 oz. cotton and statement-making embroidered caps. All of the pieces were made in Los Angeles, and are available to purchase now at Babylon LA’s website.

Captured against the backdrop of local shops and streets of Johannesburg and Cape Town, view all of the items in the lookbook above.
