Hoodlab is a Manchester based collective made up of artists, designers, and photographers. They draw inspiration from societies and subcultures from around the world to create largely graphic-based designs that reflect the youth of today. Anti-society is at the core of what Hoodlab stands for, and in previous collections, they have taken aim at media and political propaganda.
The latest collection, High Rise, brings it back to the streets with a range of staple Hoodlab pieces, including a tracksuit, crewneck, graphic t-shirts and a shoulder bag. Whilst the olive and the black color palette was chosen to reflect the urban environment they have been designed for.
The offering is relaxed yet polished. It includes rugby shirts, lightweight shell jackets, and everyday T-shirts that speak to the brand’s modern-prep influences.

PUMA’s Talon sneaker, first launched in 2004, is a relic from a specific time. It’s a shoe pulled from the archive, but its new collaboration with NO/FAITH Studios is about more than just nostalgia.
This season confirms SHOOP’s design approach. It draws from the everyday and reinterprets it through a poetic, modern lens, creating a language that joins the functional with the emotional.

Issue 26 brings together two electrifying covers that take the dopamine dive from Sadiq Desh captured by Cris Cerdeira to multidisciplinary visual artist and photographer Tomás Pintos’ cover story, Besos hasta agotar stock (Kisses Until Sold Out), developed from the live performance creating a space where glamour
meets exhaustion.
