Posted on May 17, 2016 by bythelevel

This week saw the return of Butter Goods in UK stores, and as the warmer weather finally starts to grace our shores, the Perth brand have gifted us with some Winter specials from down under perfectly suited for the unpredictable British summer.

It's a lot of similar vibes from Butter Goods for Winter 16, following their signature look for the visuals, shot on 35mm by Garth Mariano and James Whineray, the collection itself isn't far aesthetically from the previous releases, following similar themes and keeping each style simple. Aside from the familiar globe logo graphic, as well as revisiting the long sleeve rugby top designs and several lightweight outerwear pieces, we also see some strong quarter-zip styles, alongside new tongue-in-cheek graphics and an updated colour palette applied to pullover graphic hoodies and tee's. The release is bulked out with a strong selection of headwear ranging from 5-panels to beanies, featuring subtle embroidered detailing throughout. Stand out pieces for us includes the Supreme-esque Miles Davis graphic tee, Rugged Terrain cap & the Rose Coach Jacket in Khaki.

You can pick up the latest collection from Butter Goods over on the brands webstore or at select retailers including Flatspot. & Urban Industry.

Dickies Life Summer 2016 Lookbook

Posted on April 6, 2016April 6, 2016 by bythelevel

Dickies have unveiled their latest set of visuals, shot around the city of London by James Grant, showcasing the new Summer collection from their style focused 'Life' range.

As we have seen from other heritage workwear labels in the past, most notably Carhartt with their Work In Progress line, Dickies now look to rework several of the brands iconic workwear silhouettes to cater for the street level European market. Following it's meteoric rise as one of the staple brands in streetwear and skateboarding over recent years, we have seen the brand begin to update their classic designs with a sensibility towards the fashion markets, even collaborating with the likes of Yardsale and Stussy to further grow their presence in the field.

The Summer 2016 collection from Dickies Life celebrates the brands rich heritage in workwear with solid construction to offer both practicality and functionality in design, but puts more emphasise on shape and material updates for more of a contemporary feel to each piece. Maintaining core styles such as the work pant, torrance jacket, and staples such as sweatshirts and basic tees, the range is really brought to life with bold camo prints and tropical inspired patterns applied to short sleeve shirts and headwear. Additional stand out items include the mesh basketball jersey, denim trucker jacket and the 'D' polo cap.

The Dickies Life Summer 2016 collection is available now at www.dickieslife.com and select UK stockists.
