Depending on what your style is (and perhaps your age too!) you may or may not have heard of a little brand called Crooks & Castles. Landing on the LA fashion scene around 10 years ago the guys behind this brand have done an awesome job starting with nothing but the dream to have a street wear clothing store. All inspired by the mean streets of Los Angeles during the 80s and 90s the style is edgy, in your face and overall we’ve got to say, pretty damn gangsta. That lifestyle and experience of gangs and villainous lifestyle is what they took and channelled into something truly creative and productive.
The origin of their name is pretty simple – crooks are the hustlers of the world and they are doing what they can do to get their ‘castles’. The C&C guys are thinking back to infamous peeps like the Vanderbilts and the Rockafellas through to the modern day entrepreneurs like Bill Gates and Zuckerberg as their inspiration.
So lets have a taster of their new 2015 collection!
Predominantly in black with accents of bright and bold graphics with the Crooks logo, they produce a range of hoodies, t-shirts, joggers, jumpers, snap backs, beanies and more. Ultra urban, fierce, classy and just that little bit of cockiness 😉 If you are into your street style, this is the brand for you!
You can shop Crooks & Castles here on their store or for the UK you can get them at Stand-Out.
