As the Spring 2020 season thrives, streetwear giant Supreme launches another seasonal collection in collaboration with British label Barbour. The capsule features Blondey McCoy as the star of the collaborative editorial that features four items in total. Notably, all of the items are lightweight and boast a waxed cotton construction.
The collection is made up of a camp cap, a crusher hat, waist bag, and a field jacket. The silhouettes were originally made for dockers, sailors, and fishermen in North Easy England. The designs are dipped in a material true to Barbour, a heavy cloth with a hot blend of wax, oil, and gum to create a coat that is resistant to many weather conditions.
