HUMAN MADE, a label that was created from the combined creative efforts of NIGO, the founder of A Bathing Ape and Sk8thing, a renowned graphic designer, recently updated its offerings with a new HUMAN MADE selection.
Designed for young males with an interest in vintage fashion, the Fall/Winter 2016 series, that's dubbed 'Season 12,' intermingles old workwear cuts with unique artwork -- giving the neutral mostly colorways more variance.
Although many of the pieces in the new HUMAN MADE collection simply sport the label's name and logo, some of the others include greasy graphic images of fast food. Along with one that shows a slice of pizza with an angry pepperoni face, HUMAN MADE includes the words "FUTURISTIC TEENAGERS SLICE."
