Stussy and Champion Link Up for Autumn/Winter Capsule

 

 Streetwear OG’s Stussy and sportswear specialists Champion are coming together once again to deliver a strong Autumn/Winter ’16 capsule.

 Much like previous Autumn/Winter collections the brands have worked on together, this drop focuses solely on outerwear, comprised of coach and baseball jackets as well as Champions signature 'Reverse Weave' equipped hoodie and crewneck. All of which are detailed with dual branding, available in a variety of monochromatic colour-ways with pops of blue and red throughout. The collection is rounded off with a special mock-neck fleece, available in both blue and black colour options. 

 The collection is currently available at all Stussy chapter stores, unfortunately no confirmed UK stockists as far as we can see.
