Known for their 80’s Anime, early 90’s digital internet aesthetics and hip-hop/punk music influences, Stakes is a homegrown brand that has been establishing it’s mark ever since 2012. Driven by it’s ‘Lotus’ logo, Stakes carries their offerings with 3 main principles which are: Rigorous research, mutual respect and self discovery. The birth of the Researcher 2014 collection marked a huge milestone for the brand, their biggest one yet. The collection carried various pieces such as graphic t-shirts (split hem) which is a staple, a sweat anorak, waxed cotton camp hats, an oxford bucket hat and camo lined chino pants.
In 2015, they are coming up with a whole new collection called ‘Don’t Shleep’ which is currently still in the works. But in the meantime, check out the Researcher 2014 collection till the next one comes. And the icing on the cake: there is a sale going on till the 24th of February with 20% off on all items.
