TSPTR introduces a new collection in collaboration with Peanuts' Snoopy in continuation of its 70s Americana theme designs. The capsule features a selection of tees and sweaters with graphics that nod to the cartoon in a 70s design language in terms of the aesthetics.
Previously, the brand has worked with the cartoon to nod to the 60s and 70s all at once through headwear. This time, the brand focuses on the 70s in Los Angeles, specifically the West Coast to capture the blurry visuals that are seen throughout the city. Due to this, the label references surfers, musicians, beach goers, yacht clubs, and more. These elements are true to West Coast Los Angeles and detail sweaters and tees in a color palette featuring yellow, coral, orange, white, gray, and black.
