Norse Projects & Oi Polloi work in collaboration to launch a collection that draws inspiration from the Paninaro and the 80s subculture of acid casual environments. The highlighting piece of the entire collection is the sailing coat finished in a sleek white color as it is inspired by Nigel Lawson, the founder of Oi Polloi and his early career pursuit of simply selling vintage clothing.
Some other pieces in the collaborative collection include a rugby shirt with striped details that range in hues of light blue, as well as tees, caps, and beanies that all boast co-branding details. The entire collection is set to drop on October 18th online at Oi Polloi and at store locations in London and Manchester.
