Iconic American workwear brand Dickies has teamed up with Japanese fashion label Fumito Ganryu to launch a concise capsule featuring a range of biker-inspired looks.
Headlining the new East-meets-West capsule is the 'Double Jacket,' a rugged biker staple that draws inspiration from the iconic Eisenhower jacket. The piece arrives dressed in motorcycle-syle embellishments and is made from Dickie' signature T/C twill material. Other standout items in the collection include the Sarrouel Chino Pants and the Pleated Work Shirt -- two classic Japanese silhouettes that have been given Dickies-style makeover.
Finally, rounding out the capsule is the 'Light OZ Work Pants,' which offer shoppers a lightweight substitute for Dickie's rugged bottoms. For those interested, the entire capsule is now available on Fumito Ganryu's website.
