Places+Faces and Unknown T Are Closing Out the Summer in Style
Featuring bootlegged logo designs.
Throughout the U.K., it feels like there are brands constantly popping up out of nowhere. And while the uncouth marketing tactic of straight to the point Instagram captions — partnered with last-minute drops — appear to be the in-thing right now, the latter can only be justified by a strong consistency of good-quality products and garments. One brand championing quality is Places+Faces. The London-based label is capitalizing on the hype around its impressive social media co-signs from the likes of Skepta, Lil Uzi Vert, A$AP Rocky, and Lewis Hamilton by presenting its last drop of the summer that includes oversized utility looks and bootlegged brand logos.
For the collection, P+F has welcomed U.K. drill star Unknown T — who starred in the recent Palace x Calvin Klein collaboration — to be the face of the latest drop. Collection highlights include the khaki cargo pants that incorporate utility pockets on both legs along with customary P+F branding on each side. The capsule also features a double-hooded, water-resistant windbreaker that’s available in both black and blue colorways.
Standout T-shirts feature a reworked FedEx logo that reads “FedUP, where’s my order?” along with a bootlegged Street Fighter logo that brings a slice of nostalgia to the collection. Rounding off the final drop of the summer, the V2 P+F sunglasses — a design favored by Unknown T throughout his career — have been designed with a slightly boxier frame than previous editions.
You can have a closer look at the latest Places+Faces collection above and it will be available on the official Places+Faces website on August 26 at 3 p.m. GMT (11 a.m. EST).
