Atlanta rapper Lil Yachty‘s favorite clothing line – Nautica – is doing big things these days. The well-renowned fashion brand has teamed up with everyone’s fave go-to hat apparel giant New Era.
This week, New Era officially announced a limited collection inspired by Nautica’s classic Hydro Race, Scuba, and Color Block jackets set to hit retailers August 24.
Today, New Era Cap Co. Inc. announces the launch of its first ever collaboration with classic American sportswear brand, Nautica®. Anchoring the New Era X Nautica Collections are limited-edition “one of one” hats created from deconstructed vintage Nautica jackets. Each hat is unique and features elements from the jacket including patches, labels, pockets and hardware. As part of the collaboration, more extensive collections will be created featuring bold graphics inspired by Nautica’s classic Hydro Race, Scuba, and Color Block Jackets.
“The New Era X Nautica Collections are one of the most exciting partnerships of the season,” says Christina McAdam, Lifestyle Product Director for New Era Cap. “The approach is both innovative and breathtaking; together, we have united the vintage history of Nautica with the contemporary cultural style of New Era Cap.
