Polo Ralph Lauren will be re-releasing its Snow Beach collection, offering both original and modernized pieces from the brand's initial offering from 1993 as a way to celebrate the collection's 25th anniversary. This capsule collection will include the classic Snow Beach pullover, red Snow Beach vest, the Cold Wave fitted cap, as well as the Snow Beach bucket hat.
Other pieces included in this commemorative collection include a vest with red banding details, colour-blocked rugby shirts, oversized ponchos, high-top sneakers, boonie caps, waist bags and backpacks.
Some of the more modern pieces are directly inspired by the original collection, and are rendered in the same bold colourways and lettering, but are updated with technical fabrics and contemporary fabrication practices.
This retro revival will be split up into two different collections, one defined by its bold colour palette, while the other is presented in more monochromatic hues of black and white. The coloured offerings will be available January 25th, while its more subdued black/white counterpart will be released February 1. The collection will be made available through the brand's e-commerce site, and select physical stockists.
Raekwon famously rocked the iconic Snow Beach pullover in the video for the Wu-Tang Clan's 1994 single "Can It Be All So Simple." Peep the video below, and watch the famous East Coast MC don this colourful garment in its infancy.
