Butter Goods Summer 2014 Lookbook

Posted on November 18, 2014December 17, 2014 by bythelevel

Australian based label Butter Goods are back to give us a look at their latest offering, ready just in time for Australian Summer, with this accompanying lookbook.

As they follow up their Spring release, the brand continues to apply playful lo-fi inspired graphics and humorous tag lines, drawing from the D.I.Y 90’s punk rock aesthetic. The release is packed full of logo-centric tees and long sleeves, as well as short sleeved shirts, polo tops, bottoms and headwear options, all showcased in this gritty lookbook shot in film around the brands hometown of Perth.

It’s great to see the skater owned and operated brand gain some serious recognition worldwide. Butter Goods draw from one of the most influential decades of modern skateboarding, at a time where street skating was taking centre stage and trends were being set and not followed. They bring that raw style and attitude from the era and apply it to their designs in the right way, with solid results.

The Butter Goods Summer 2014 collection is now available at www.buttergoods.com and Bristol’s Fifty Fifty Store.

Polar Skate Co. x Carhartt WIP Editorial

Posted on October 24, 2014March 10, 2016 by bythelevel

Polar Skate Co.’s unique designs meet Carhartt WIP’s style focused outerwear as the two brands link up this Autumn for a limited collaborative collection.

Carhartt WIP have been the focus of many collaborations over the past few years with the likes of A.P.C and Vans in their portfolio. This year has seen Polar Skate Co. chiming in with a huge collab of their own with the release of their reworked Converse Cons CTAS Pro. This season the brands styles combine effortlessly as they present a robust yet wearable offering, built with quality in mind and a high attention to detail.

The outcome is a strong selection of skate ready goods as Polar revisit a selection of classic Carhartt shapes. The collection includes graphic print t-shirts featuring modernist illustrations, inspired by Greek antiquity, as well as cut and sew pieces in the long sleeve shirts and quilted lined vests. There is a beanie and team decks, as well as a nice touch in a dual branded pen featuring the ‘big head’ logo. Each item is constructed from premium fabrics including suede, denim and cotton, with additional detailing in the suede labelling.

It was great for us personally when we heard news on the collaboration, holding Polar and Carhartt WIP as two of our favourite brands here at By The Level. Polar embodies what contemporary skateboarding is all about and this is translated through their original designs and the media they put out. Its refreshing to see an independent brand try new things and offer clothing and hardware designs that give something different, not just bowing to current trends. Their latest collaboration sees the brand continue to develop, and with Carhartt WIP’s trustworthy and highly functional outerwear meets street wear garments at their disposal, the concise collection is a well rounded success.

The Polar Skate Co. X Carhartt WIP Collection is available now at selected retailers in the UK, at carhartt-wip.com and polarskateco.com. Also be sure to check out the awesome STOKER issue 1 HERE.
