HUF, a popular skate label, partnered with the PacSun retail company for a collection of apparel that boasts silky finishes, camouflage prints, masculine colorways and most interestingly, intricate Chinese dragon designs.
The small capsule series has only a few items to offer, however each maintains a high level of quality throughout and stays true to the overall theme. Included is a deep black hoodie that features the HUF brand name boldly down the sleeve and the Chinese dragon design on both sides of the chest.
Also notable are the silk jacket and hat, which feature similar gold and red embroidery but in different sizes, with more detail surrounding the Chinese dragon design on the black and white jacket.
