As of 8 August, the campaign had produced just over 47,000 Harris-Walz camo hats totaling $1,878,524, the campaign told Teen Vogue.It’s filling a long-nascent gap, says Holmes. “For so long, Republicans have had this very clear, visual symbol.

Before its hiatus, (Di)vision was stocked at retailers like LN-CC and Ssense, but is now 100 per cent DTC, and the collection of upcycled hoodies, jorts, sports-inspired jackets and more was made available immediately post-show on the brand’s website. “The last few years have been tough for everyone, including me. So I decided to make a collection for the community,” says founder Wick. In practice, this meant producing upcycled, conceptual pieces that would never work for wholesale, like garments made from kids toys and cut-up The North Face jackets, alongside the brand’s signature wearable logo hoodies and bombers.“Working in wholesale…
