THUG CLUB Continues to Define South Korean Streetwear
References: en.thug-club & hypebeast
South Korean streetwear imprint THUG CLUB is making a name for itself as it was first founded by designer duo Min and Kwon. The brand has a subversive perspective when it comes to streetwear and the looks continue the conversation about the unapologetic approach to design.
Many of the inspirations behind the looks stem from expression and the liberty of those wearing what they want to. It can also be seen as the elderly around Seoul's Dongmyo Flea Market are often seen as free of restrictions when it comes to fashion. THUG CLUB is also known for its loud designs and is led by bold details such as the zipper pulls and motifs that care cast in metal for a stark look.
