Autumn Lookbook

Agora taps into its softer side for Autumn campaign.

Luxurious textures and earthy tones aplenty.

Agora has eschewed provocative designs and graphics in place of a more classic take on menswear for its Autumn collection. The Norwich, UK streetwear brand’s new release boasts luxurious textures, earthy tones and heritage silhouettes.

Subtle touches like the pants-matching plaid lettering of the sweatshirts add character and unity to the collection. While the classic tailoring of the cropped pants and mock neck long sleeves add a touch of elegance.

Agora is best known for its minimal embroidered pieces at affordable price points. But their Autumn campaign is part of a wider exploration into more sophisticated and classically-oriented cut and sew menswear.

Retro Fresh Prince Snapbacks

fresh prince snapback hats

Our new retro Fresh Prince Snapback hats are steeped in history. To make them, we raided vintage vaults worldwide to unearth real 90s hats with the most iconic patterns we could find. Having taken notes on the colorways we then dissected a bunch of hats to study their fit, dimensions and bill types.

Fully loaded with all this info we set about to make the perfect 90s party hat ️‍

The final product is a fresh prince snapback that’s faithfully vintage. The shape is perfectly 90s with its retro 5 panel construction and flat peak. And the nostalgic pattern is screen printed onto thickened cotton using vibrant inks that pop.

A Little Background

The Fresh Prince snapback hat is an iconic piece of 1990s fashion, famously associated with the character Will Smith played in the television show “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.” The show was a significant cultural touchstone. The costume choices made by Will Smith’s character were pivotal in shaping the fashion landscape of the era, and the snapback hat became a symbol of this influence.

After “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” ended in ’96, the popularity of snapback hats waned, with other styles of caps, like fitted hats and truckers, becoming more prominent. However, the influence of the Fresh Prince snapback never completely fell off.

The Fresh Prince snapback is now seen as a timeless accessory that continues to influence streetwear and fashion. Its also the go-to party hat️‍️‍…
