The Connecting Cultures Capsule Collection by Edwin x Trippin
With a campaign shot in Accra by the collective Surf Ghana
July 14th, 2021
After their first collaboration presented last December, the Japanese cult brand Edwin and the independent platform Trippin dedicated to travel culture have created a new collaborative capsule collection called Connecting Cultures. The capsule has at its centre the idea of the proximity of different cultures reunited after a moment of forced separation and has also become the protagonist of a campaign taken on the streets of Accra by the Surf Ghana collective.
The centrepiece of the collection is a graphic t-shirt that includes vintage-style graphics, Edwin's Japanese lettering and the inscription "Connecting Cultures". Similar graphics also recur on the rest of the collection which consists of two jackets, a denim jacket and a padded bomber jacket; a workwear suit and a pair of white jeans.
