Aiming to support World AIDS Day on December 1, the clothier taps international street artists to utilize the jackets as their individualized canvas, crafting personal responses to the health crisis and their own visual reaction to the ongoing fight against the threat.

Together the line bridges the divide between a quality wardrobe and effective design that echoes a vocal crisis response.
