The HIP Store has released a new capsule with the help of sneaker giant New Balance. The partnership presents a range of elevated essentials that join womenswear brands like Girls of Dust, YMC, and Carhatt WIP on the retailer's website. The 10-piece collection comprises zip-up tops, vests, quarter-zip sweaters, and trousers in earthy tones like deep navy and subtle brown.
New Balance lends its creative touch to the range, paying homage to its heritage with a modern twist. HIP has an extensive past in the menswear category, recently launching its womenswear department this past April. The independent retailer has dedicated its Leeds retail location to exclusively stocking womenswear garments and lifestyle and home goods.
The HIP x New Balance collaboration launches at the HIP Leeds location on May 26 and on the HIP website on May 27.
