The Acapulco Gold 2012 Fall Lookbook shows off the brand’s newest collection of street wear. The collection is large and diverse, but the hallmark of the collection has to be the head wear.
New Era caps, snapbacks and knit beanies are all included in the Acapulco Gold 2012 Fall collection. The biggest stand-out for me is the leopard-print beanie with a red pom-pom on top. The range of head wear features many different patterns and logos -- enough variety for everyone to find something they love.
Japanese influences are seen in the t-shirt graphics, which display koi fish and geishas. The collection is completed with a selection of corduroy pants, work pants, flannel button-downs and crew neck sweaters.
