South Korean record shop and label SOUND SHOP balansa has enlisted Hong Kong-based graphic designer Domz for a unique collaborative capsule covered in graffiti prints and new cartoons. Domz is best known for his “Casper” character which made its way on a collaborative rug with cashmerepullover.

“There are many disturbing things around us every day that make us stressed out like the morning alarm,” commented Domz on the inspiration behind this capsule. “Music is the best escape for us to get relief from those annoying things.” Domz’s original dog character “Chubby” finds happiness and an escape from real life in SoundShop Balansa by listening to music through massive oversized headphones and wearing Balansa.

Graphics of a mean-looking alarm clock with bat wings and a white fluffy dog wearing a balansa shirt, Korea cap, and headphones are found across a range of short and long-sleeve tees, pins by Perks, large keychains, and caps.

The balansa x Domz collection is now available on the balansa website.
