Digital artist and painter Jason Seife works in collaboration with The Hundreds on a new collection of apparel for the season. The two join forces to celebrate tradition as the new range spotlights Seife's intricate work of illustrating traditional Persian rugs that have a personal flair.
The artist comes from Cuban and Syrian immigrant parents, so he has always had an appreciation of the beauty of the rugs. He draws these works as an honor to his family history and celebrates a spiritual balance. The collection itself is made up of hoodies, tees, and jackets that are designed in a color palette of black, peach, and olive green. It is then detailed with intricate artwork for a beautiful look.
