Trapstar x Ed Hardy Connects London to Harlem

Trapstar and Ed Hardy's first-ever co-branded capsule proves long-distance relationships – and collaborations – can be successful if the foundational connection is strong enough. Bonding over a the commitment to infusing the streetwear scene with real, raw energy, the duo has delivered a collaborative collection that transcends the ocean between each brand's headquarters.

With Trapstar hailing from London and Ed Hardy from Harlem, the collection encapsulates the energies of both hometowns, with UK rappers Nemzzz and Bloody Dior fronting the lookbook – shot entirely in London and Harlem.

Standout garments include the Dragon Windbreaker and Denim Suit, with the windbreaker surfacing in a gradient bright-red colorway, stamped with a large dragon graphic encircling the entirety of the backside. Ed Hardy's signature graphic-driven approach engulfs the entirety of the capsule, carrying over to signature waffle-knit t-shirts.

Elsewhere, an Enzyme-treater Bomber Jacket takes a more minimal design, with its sleek silhouette surfacing in all black. Textured detailing elevates the back of the jacket with embroidered cobranding written in cursive atop a crouching tiger.
