GrowthRing & Supply Revisits Its Hong Kong Classics In "Signature Reborn " Lookbook
Bringing back the Kowloon Walled City Souvenir Jacket.
Hong Kong‘s GrowthRing & Supply (GRS) is bringing back its classics in a new “Signature Reborn ” collection. Looking back at its defining pre-Project Rising releases as well as its staple Kowloon hoodie, the brand updates the two for a Winter release.
As a label that’s rooted in Hong Kong, references are pulled from the city’s rich history of entertainment and culture. One of GRS’ earliest releases — the “Inferno of Darkness” Sukajan Souvenir Jacket — tells of relics from the ’50s and ’60s — the Kowloon Walled City and the Haw Par Mansion. This reversible Yokosuka embroidery jacket features two sides that represent the establishments of the past where its satin emerald color has been updated to stain blue, while at the same time given a looser cut.
Another item, the Faded Washed Kowloon Hoodie, has also been updated with an ’80s-style loose-shoulder cut while at the same time given a new sun-faded wash with hand-distressed details. Priced at HKD 3,980 and HKD 1,280 ($510 USD and $165 USD) respectively, both items are limited to 100 pieces and can be found now over at the GRS web store. Check out the lookbook above.
