This year\u00c2\u00a0 seems to be the year of great collaborations, with the newest announcement being from urban clothing company OBEY, denim king Levi’s, and street artist Shepard Fairey — the man behind the iconic Kilroy-esque OBEY logo.<\/p>\n
(As an aside, did you know the OBEY logo was originally based on an image of Andr\u00c3\u00a9 the Giant?)<\/p>\n
The updated Seattle-grunge feel is casual and cool, and all the pieces within the capsule collection look suitably laid-back and broken-in. (We could, however, do without the check button-down, which looks literally<\/em> grimy with motor oil.)<\/p>\n It’s always interesting when unconventional artists “make it” in the real world, and the Obey x Levi’s collaboration manages to keep the street cred while delivering the goods.<\/p>\n
