Krusoe Store Archives | BY THE LEVEL

Towards the end of last year we were asked by Brighton based streetwear, menswear & lifestyle store KRUSOE to produce a short editorial for their Winter collections.

It’s been a hugely progressive year for the young store, who have managed to build on their humble beginnings and add some of the most exciting and respected brands in the market, something that is great to see in our native city. Now stocking the likes of Beinghunted, Satta, PRMTVO, Wig Wam socks and Born x Raised, which sit next to timeless brands such as Wood Wood and Dickies, the store definitely has a strong sense of direction and offers an alternative to the highly saturated shop fronts we find on the high street.

The aim of the visuals were to be relatable and to represent the general vibe around the store. We chose the relaxed surroundings of a minimal Brighton home to showcase key pieces from KRUSOE’s collections with model Ed McRae.

Krusoe has been a welcome addition to the Brighton scene since it opened its doors back in the Autumn of 2013. Situated in Brighton’s historic south lanes, the store combines its minimal aesthetic with a solid selection of clothing sourced globally, but with a specific UK focus.

Offering up a great mixture of ‘premium’ streetwear and casual menswear items, the store puts a focus on brands that take a high quality approach, producing timeless pieces rather than adhering to the current trends.

We linked up with our friends at Krusoe to produce this minamilistic lookbook, showcasing product from their Winter collections in store, with the likes of Raised By Wolves, Passport, Black Scale and Grind London all featuring.
