If you’ve been craving something more edgy and retro for your spring and summer wardrobe, look no further because Gap has brought forth the best collaboration yet. Recently, the American company announced its collaboration with the London-based clothing label, Palace, for a unique skater-style collection that will give you plenty of nostalgic vibes for the upcoming seasons. Along with a kids’ line, this adult collection will give you everything you would expect of a ‘90s skater line. Everything from windbreakers to cargo pants is included in this 55-item collection, and it will have you rethinking your entire wardrobe.
The PALACE GAP collection
On their own, Gap and Palace have carved out their unique branding and clientele. The American brand is known for its nostalgic yet simple silhouettes, including its iconic polos and Gap branding. On the other hand, Palace has become a staple in UK streetwear with its edgy and raw apparel that appeals to those looking to express their unique style. While on the surface, this collaboration seems random, it’s an important step for expanding both their audiences and customers.
According to Gap President and CEO Mark Breitbard, “We love collaborating with partners like Palace who are able to tap into our heritage and reinvent our product icons in a way that is true to their brand DNA.” With an increase of ‘’90s-inspired trends on the horizon, it makes sense for a staple brand like Gap to join in on the fun.
What to expect from the GAP PALACE collection
For those looking to expand their wardrobe with this one-of-a-kind collaboration, the good news is that there is plenty to choose from. With a 55-item collection, this collaboration brings everything you need to build out your wardrobe. Including hoodies, rugby shirts, t-shirts, hoodies, board shorts, oxford shirts, and varsity jackets, there’s something for every style to pick from. One of the aspects that sets this collaboration apart is the fact that each item has a reworked logo that infuses the Gap and Palace brands into one, giving you a truly one-of-a-kind piece you can’t get anywhere else. As a special addition, the collection also includes three exclusive skate decks and a limited-edition Jeremy Duck Plush Toy.
With so much to look forward to in this streetwear collection, there’s no doubt that pieces will be flying off the shelf. To get your hands on one of these pieces, you’ll want to be quick as the collection is set to release today in both the EU and US regions. In the US, the collection will be released at 11 a.m. ET / 8 a.m. PT on both Gap.com and Palaceskateboards.com. If you’re looking to take a peak at the collection in-store, you’ll be able to find it starting March 22 in select Gap stores and all Palace stores starting at 11 a.m.
