This Aussie streetwear brand never shies away from graphics. Whether making classics like tees or peppering them across a more uncommon item like a striped button-up, the brand always makes sure to weave in imagery to help tell its story. Sometimes that's sketches that look like a high school student's notebook or a body full of tattoos. Other times the images lean into meditation or nature. No matter what, you can't help but give them a second glance. Everything Jungles Jungles makes is a conversation starter.
Lost Files takes the rural lifestyle of the Midwest and translates it through a streetwear lens. Some of the Milwaukee-born brands best items thus far have been knit sweaters that depict classic scenes from the countryside and shadow plaid flannels. The items remind us of what you may expect from heritage labels like L.L. Bean or Eddie Bauer, but livened up with a youthful twist.
Krost is a New York City–based menswear label founded in 2018 by Samuel Krost. It’s a brand that bridges the gap between streetwear and traditional menswear, offering pieces that feel sophisticated yet playful. You'll find workwear and athleticwear-inspired pieces crafted through the lens of clean-cut tailoring. If your style has evolved past the splashy graphic tees and baggy jeans, look no further.
