ÖCTAGON, a skate brand that's known for its unique graphics and bold branding, recently updated its selection of offerings with its Spring/Summer 2017 collection.
To promote its new collection, the brand lensed a lookbook that features a variety of male models, who are often shown with their faces blurred. This effect gives the shots an eye-catching aesthetic, especially as they're paired with minimalist backdrops that enable the apparel itself to be at the forefront. In terms of graphic designs and cuts, the apparel takes cues form 1990s fashion, making for a nostalgic collection that's likely to appeal to skate fanatics who still favor old school looks.
The whole ÖCTAGON collection is expected to drop on July 5th, when it will be available from its online store, as well as from a number of select retailers.
