END., Needles and Blackstock & Weber Unite for a Multi-Brand Capsule Collection
Delivering both apparel and footwear, END. has enlisted Needles and Blackstock & Weber as collaborative partners in its ‘Blackjack’ capsule that derives inspiration from the card game.
For the apparel in the collection, END. taps the prowess of Keizo Shimizu’s Needles for five re-worked signature garments including the Mohair Cardigan, Trackpants and Top, Vacation Shirt and Bermuda Bucket Hat, each of which is decorated with design codes borrowed from the card game, blackjack. To accompany the apparel, END. has developed a pair of loafers with Blackstock and Weber that complement the theme of the collection. Taking a detail-heavy approach, the Brooklyn-based label lends its Ellis Penny loafer as the template, leaving END. to put its touches on it in the form of a black and off-white colour scheme and embroidered card suits that mirror the apparel features. Finished to a premium standard, the loafer has been handmade in Portugal using a double pebbled leather construction and a Goodyear welt.
The collection will be available to purchase on the 12th of November from END. launches.
