The collection reimagines Surf Culture through a kaleidoscopic aesthetic, drawing inspiration from beaches stretching from Labadi and Bull Bay to Tokyo and Santa Ana. These influences also appear in a refreshed take on the iconic Stüssy World Tour graphic, printed on co-branded T-shirts and cotton poplin Oxfords.
In a global variation on Beatnik style, fringed-hem shorts, studded stonewashed denim, and leopard-print sweaters sit alongside a double-breasted blazer crafted from navy Loro Piana doeskin wool. Wales Bonner’s codes are echoed in a bark-brown leather varsity blouson and a silk polo shirt featuring a photograph by Accra-based artist Nana Yaw Oduro.
The classic surf wardrobe is refined with a double-zip neoprene hoodie, logo-embroidered board shorts, and a beach sarong designed in collaboration with Peter Miles.
Together across the water
Blessings arrive with the tide.
The Stüssy x Wales Bonner Capsule Collection will release on September 26 at select chapter stores worldwide.
