C.P. PALACE: A NEW TAKE ON ITALIAN SPORTSWEAR LEGACY THROUGH SKATE CULTURE
C.P. Company and the British brand Palace continue their creative dialogue with a new collaboration. An encounter that reinterprets the codes of Italian sportswear and iconic pieces such as the Goggle Jacket through a graphic approach inspired by skate culture. With its signature blend of vintage and contemporary influences, Palace delved into C.P. Company’s archive, merging both design languages into a unified vision.
The collection, co-branded with the customised C.P. PALACE logo, includes the Goggle Jacket with external CS II hood and 5-pocket trousers in 14 3/4oz. Denim, a full-zip overshirt in 50 Fili Heavy, two graphic t-shirts, a lightweight Sea Island cotton knit and a range of accessories.
To mark the launch, C.P. Company and Palace present a short film by Michael J Foxe and Stuart Hammond set against the Mediterranean backdrop of Sicily, where sun-drenched coastlines, the sea, and lively local squares become a playground for Palace skaters Lucien Clarke, Danny Brady, Juan Saavedra, and Alexandrino Da Silva.
The choice of Sicily is part of a well-established tradition between the two brands: each time they collaborate, a different Italian location, from North to South, becomes the backdrop for a visual narrative that captures some of the country’s most iconic landscapes.
The collection will be available from March 28th at 12pm CET on cpcompany.com, at C.P. Company flagship stores in Milan, Paris, Seoul, Tokyo and Shanghai, and online at palaceskateboards.com and Palace flagship stores in London, NYC, LA , Tokyo and Seoul. In addition to the above a very special Palace C.P Company pop up will be hosted exclusively at DSM Paris from the 28th to the 30th of March
