The First Wave of Upcycled Our Legacy x Stüssy Pieces Just Dropped Online
The fresh collaboration between Stockholm menswear imprint Our Legacy and California streetwear bastion Stüssy achieved what every collab should strive for, but few can ascertain. The partnership taps into a melting pot of customers attracted to both brands for different reasons, and inspires a genuine curiosity to see how hybridization might play out.
The first drop arrives on the brand's webstore and in European Our Legacy stores today – and the range is likely to delight classic menswear savants, surf-adjacent skater bros, and the wider majority whose style sensibilities fall somewhere in between.
As an exemplary use of upcycling, the collab falls under Our Legacy's WORK SHOP sub-line, which repurposes deadstock materials into new wares. The collaboration uses archival Stüssy fabrics from as far back as the ’90s to reimagine Our Legacy's signature loose and free-flowing suiting, and vice versa, with Our Legacy materials being crafted into casual beach-wear essentials from Stüssy.
Highlights from the first drop includes pieces such as a red/white striped pinstripe shirt made from deadstock Japanese Stüssy fabric – cut to loose proportions – and finished off with Our Legacy's signature mother-of-pearl buttons. Elsewhere, the collab features easy-to-wear graphic tees arriving in a monochrome pallet with the WORK SHOP yin yang symbol sitting above Stüssy's iconic branding.
You can shop the new pieces at the link below or in-store at Dover Street Market London from August 27.
