When Thug Club gets involved, Dickies classic workwear becomes a little less, well, classic.

The Korean streetwear brand, a breakout independent label quickly gaining a high-profile clientele including the likes of A$AP Rocky, Offset, and SZA, is reimagining time-honored workwear staples through its lens.

Dickies, welcome to Thug Club's world, complete with studs, embroidered detailing, and a whole load of distressing. 

Items such as the Dickies Eisenhower jacket, which has roots tracing back to the 1940s, and its 874 Work Pant, brought to the market in 1967, are adorned with contrast cross-shaped stitching normally used for the Japanese craft of Sashiko or decorated with huge Thug Club embroidery.

But this collection goes beyond Dickies’ most iconic styles, there’s also a denim blazer tastefully distressed around the pockets with matching jeans. A smart-casual Canadian tuxedo of sorts.

Set to be released on November 29, available exclusively in Korea, this collection is a pretty drastic redesign of Dickies’ cult classic workwear staples. However, by Thug Club’s standards, it’s actually relatively lowkey.

Let's not forget that Thug Club’s previous collaboration, with Fila, was a pair of huge, horn-wielding boots
