Brain Dead Winter 2020 Delivery Now Available
Ernie Salvatera
Brain Dead is a truly unique brand with its abstract designs and thought-provoking graphics. Founded in 2014, the brand is the collaborative effort of global artists and designers headed by the duo of Kyle Ng and Ed Davis. With creative inspirations drawing from California’s underground subcultures ranging from post-punk, skateboarding, and comics, the California-based label models the ideology that Brain Dead is not just one person, nor idea, but sits in the space between people. The brand has a list of noteworthy collaborations with labels such as Vans Vault, Converse, North Face, and much more.
With an emphasis on abstract graphics, Brain Dead delivers a list of tees, hoodies, and hats this time around. The collection also throws in returning components like fur-finished garments, detailed parkas, and a long list of graphic short & long tees for the season. Some of the elevated pieces such as the Brain Dead Heavyweight Embroidered Paneled Shirt list a detail of features, like a heavyweight 100% cotton finish that highlights and creates a comfortable, better-fitting shirt. With its two-toned body and contrasting ribbed collar, the luxury extends to a playfully embroidered brand text across the chest. Even outerwear pieces as represented by the Acid Sun Run Hide Hoodie see equally-detailed finishes. In a relaxed fit, the roomy and equally stylish hoodie is accented with a large kangaroo pouch front pocket for storage and comfort, while a drawstring-less hoodie sits atop in tonal fashion.
A line of plush polyester fur garments are some of the livelier pieces in the collection with selective options ranging from bucket hats, jackets, and nifty convertible zip-off pants. With an eye-popping display of detail, the Embossed Fur Bucket Hat provides two stylish colors to choose from with it’s ‘bulging’ graphic occupying the center, while embossed fur wields a spherical pattern throughout the bucket. If you’re inclined to outerwear, the Debossed Paisley Fur Half Zip is the star of the show. Finished in a deep navy fur, intricate paisley prints are debossed deeply and luxuriously throughout. Accented with dual flap pockets across the chest, the tonal collar is secured by a vibrant orange tag in Brain Dead fashion.
