Seoul-based fashion label Used Future is returning for the Spring/Summer 2018 season with its latest collection entitled 'City Project -- Tokyo, Japan.' The seasonal range draws a strong inspiration from the cultural elements of Tokyo, and it translates through the implementation of graphic details. The City Project collection features a series of graphic hoodies, t-shirts, headwear and even stickers. The specific Tokyo focus dials in on the local citizens and culture because as a Korean fashion label, it wanted to implant its own streetwear style into its neighboring surroundings.
Some of the standout items from Used Future's latest collection include the tiger motif graphic t-shirts and the "dad caps" with adjustable straps and simplistic branding details at the front panel.
