Crooks & Castles – 2011 Varsity Jacket

A question we hear quite often recently is the relevancy of street wears. Is there a need still of edgy graphics and controversial statements? (our answer is “yes, there is”) or do labels have to branch out to the world of progressive fashion? (our answer is “maybe but not necessary). The Los Angeles-base Crooks & Castles straddled both realms perfectly. In the past few seasons, the label’s cut and sewn collection have been a reflection of the more “formal” and “mature” silhouettes. However, it is able to alternate that with a series of graphic tee and this varsity jacket that embodied the label street wear root, from the Medusa head to the Air Gun graphics. In black Melton Wool with white leather sleeves, the 2011 Varsity Jacket from Crooks & Castles is now available at retailer EASTWEST and other C&C dealers.
