Scheduled to arrive in late July GB0221/BK01 : Zip up hoodie (“DIY Punk”)

Banksy, a masked artist who causes news and pros and cons around the world every time he releases his work. Zip up hoodie (“DIY Punk”) released by glamb in collaboration with BRANDALISED, which manages and photographs his work.

The motif of Banksy's work, "DIY Punk," depicts punks trying to create spray art. Originally, he takes over the DIY spirit and gathers his own tools, but by depicting a figure that relies on kits with manuals purchased at mass retailers, he criticizes modern society. This one has the same image printed on the back by glamb, but the body is a black hoodie similar to the one worn by the man standing on the back. In addition, glamb drew a manual and a spray can held by a man as a graphic, and treated it with a layout as if it was stuck in the pocket of the front body. The design looks as if Banksy's work and print are combined into a mirror. It has a trick art finish that creates the illusion that you are the person in the picture when you put it on. The textile uses a medium weight 30/10 fleece lining that can be worn in any season. The body, which has a big silhouette with dropped shoulders, has been given a one-wash after sewing to create a vintage-like texture.
