Marc Jacques Burton and Kangol team for exclusive collaboration

Hip hop loves fashion. Influential brands Marc Jacques Burton and
Kangol have teamed up for an exclusive collaboration inspired by music
and the styles of contemporary hip hop artists, set to launch during
Paris Men’s Fashion Week.

A British brand, Marc Jacques Burton is heavily inspired by the
punk and hip hop movements in music from the 1970s and 1980s. Popular
musicians and celebrities have taken a following to the brand, as its
designs have been seen on influencers including Migos, Future, Gigi
Hadid, Winnie Harlow, Tom Holland and Tom Hardy.

Similarly, British brand Kangol started out in the 1980s dressing
hip hop legends such as LL Cool J, Run DMC and Notorious B.I.G. With
its historic background, the brand continues to dress musicians like
Beyonce, Eminem and Migos.

Marc Jacques Burton, Creative Director of his eponymous label, said
in a statement, “I wanted to collaborate with Kangol as, like MJB,
we’re a British brand and closely aligned to music. Both our brands
are worn by musicians. I respect the Kangol heritage and history and I
created, these pieces, which can as easily be rocked on stage,
travelling between concerts or worn in the studio.”

The two brands first previewed teasers of their collaboration last
month, when the members of Migos wore tracksuits by the two brands
last month while on tour with Drake.

The full streetwear collection debuts at Paris Fashion Week this
week and will launch in L.A. later this year. At the moment, items are
exclusively available at Marc Jacques Burton stockists and on the
brand’s ecommerce site.
