The World Outlook hat is limited to 30 hats world wide and is only available at MooseShirts

The Word Outlook out was made to match perfectly with the View of the world black. It features a Sea Green front AK embroidery with a Sky Blue under brim that has a black V.S.O.P embroidery across it.

The eyelids are sky blue for the final touch to make this a perfect match. Grab it while you can.

Their new shirt collection is an environmentally friendly product because it reutilizes a material that is very difficult to decompose: PET plastic bottles, that represents 30% of the solid residues collected in Brazilian municipalities.

The selective collection of recyclable waste involves work en generates income to 250 thousand families.

In addition to the social an environmental benefits, the combination of PET polyester fibers with cotton produces strong, warm and comfortable fabrics that retain identical colors as the conventional polyester.

Check Out the new collection M.J. gloves designed by Tineke Greijdanus from recycled old shirts:

The world looks at the Gaza strip again, this unfortunate conflict between Israel and the Palestinians that has flickered up to become a cruel war.

Whether your sympathies are with one side or the other - fighting is always the wrong way and too many innocents suffer from the bombings. A war is always a loss. With this in mind we decided to resurrect the most well-known classic hippie slogan Make Love Not War.

The fact that it’s old doesn’t make it less true. Since making love will always be great and war will always be horrible. In short: a shirt for eternity everybody should have.”

The line is scheduled to drop in March of 2009 and will be sold exclusively at select GARB/EDGE retailers worldwide!

GARB/EDGE RETRO-FUTURISM SPRING 2009 COLLECTION:

GARB/EDGE (garbege) delivers a futuristic collection for Spring 2009. By intricately linking the worlds of Street-Art, Architecture, and Science & Technology’s history of the future, Creative Partners W.”Zak” Hoke and Malcolm Phipps decided to approach their latest collection with innovation, imagination and passion.

The GARB/EDGE Spring 2009 collection explores the theme “Retro-Futurism,” by returning to the enthusiasm for the depictions of the future produced in the past both in science fiction movies and in the nonfiction media of the time.

Crafted from a variety of cultural touch points, these garments draw inspiration from legendary movies, music, magazines, and books such as, H.G. Wells’ War of the Worlds, A Clockwork Orange, 2001: (A Space Odyssey), Star Wars, The Matrix, Akira, Terminator, Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon, Daft Punk’s Interstella 5555 and Kanye West’s Graduation album by infusing their iconography with GARB/EDGE sensibilities.

Traces of inspiration from artists like Futura, Jose Parla, Takashi Murakami and fashion brands Perks & Mini (PAM), Sixpack France, ADDICT and BAPE are captured in the line making it creatively cohesive with it’s theme. Technological advances in the products construction reflect the brands intended one-of-a-kind uniqueness and eco-friendly agenda.

Playing off of the words Garb, meaning garment and Edge, as in cutting edge, Garb/Edge represents a counter-culture street fashion aesthetic incubated in the UK and matured on the streets of New York City.

The brand also infuses the personal style of its founders with thought-provoking products for early-adopters who possess refined sensibilities for everything from fashion to politics. Utilizing t-shirts as the primary vehicle of self-expression, the hand drawn graphics are innovative and inspiring.

Frequent travelers of the world’s major fashion and design hubs represent the GARB/EDGE. Those who know where the hottest footwear shops are in London and where to get the best sushi in Paris. Equally at home in Harijuku or Brooklyn, GARB/EDGE aims to keep connoisseurs of artistic expression draped in the best Graphic Tees, Denim, Outerwear, Accessories and Collaborative Collectibles.

Celebrities known to wear GARB/EDGE include Chris Brown, Lil’ Wayne, 50 Cent/G-Unit, Pusha/Clipse, Gym Class Heroes, Ludacris, Angela Simmons, Alicia Keys.
