Jawbreaker, After Hours
The punk gets louder, and Represent gets dressed for the night.
What does Represent look like at night?
That question sat behind most of Drop 2. Performance, activewear, graphics and sweats already speak for the brand.
Going out didn't. So instead of putting the Represent guy in a suit, Toni and the mainline team pulled tailoring, overcoats and shirting into his world, then built the drop from the ground up with three new footwear styles.
"Where the first chapter of JAWBREAKER was rooted in military uniform and utility, Drop 2 steps into something darker. The mood shifts from military to punk, from functional to more dressed, sharper and slightly undone."
Toni Pirdie, Head of Design
Occasionwear, on our terms.
The answer isn’t a suit. It’s black tailoring cut loose enough to live in, denim distressed until it looks worn into the ground, and punk graphics that won’t sit still on the T-shirt.
Footwear leads from the ground up, with the Wrap Boot setting the tone. Knitwear moves into softer, richer yarns, and the Traxsuit proves simple is the hardest thing to get right. Dressed up or torn apart, it’s the same guy either way.
