The first capsule from the new Rabbits’ brand, co-launched by Carrots and American rapper Freddie Gibbs, has officially debuted. The debut collection features an array of rabbit-themed long and short-sleeved shirts with various graphic prints and branding elements. Crewneck sweaters and trucker hats with similar illustrations are also available, ranging from playful and endearing depictions of kids holding pet rabbits to more trippy paintings of anthropomorphic bunnies striking the titanic posture and driving a toothed monster truck. There are also designs of a bunny plucking petals from a wilted yellow flower.
Rabbits has confirmed that it will only debut two collections per year, so consumers in the market for the brand’s whimsical designs must act fast. Interested parties can visit the Anwar Carrots website to purchase items from the newest line.
