To promote the upcoming post-apocalyptic surf movie Year Zero, Globe is releasing the Year Zero Collection, which is a series of outfits inspired by the upcoming flick. Globe describes the story as a “modern take on high performance surfing set in a post-apocalyptic world, reminiscent of Mad Max or an HG Wells novel.”
The Year Zero Collection draws inspiration from the film’s dystopian art directions. To truly capture the gritty nature of a world gone wrong, each of the pieces has a vintage aesthetic that beautifully complements the inspiration behind the grim theme. The collection includes a Vietnam War-era jacket, a vintage motorcycle coat, Japanese denim, a black boardshort and a leather boot.
Look for the Year Zero Collection to hit stores on October 21st.
