Manchester-based fashion label The Long Shot Exp. unveils its latest seasonal offerings for Spring/Summer 2018. The new capsule draws a strong influence from its multiple subcultures that surround the label's hometown. The label normally spotlights headwear, but recently broadened its horizons in delivering pieces such as graphic t-shirts and bags in the new capsule.
The Long Shot Exp. Spring/Summer 2018 collection introduces brand new pieces including the technical Damon Mountain hat. The unique hat features an ear flap, soft peak, and a rounded pattern design. The piece is influenced by the way that the youth reinterpreted mountaineering apparel in general. The capsule is also comprised of the Storm Chaser hat, screen imprinted t-shirts, and the Sling Pack bag, which are all constructed by hand in Manchester. The Long Shot Exp.'s new collection is now available for purchase online.
