Artist and designer Evan Hecox displays his fascination with the urban landscape on Incase products for the sixth installment of Curated by Arkitip. Available today , the Evan Hecox series has been issued in three limited editions: London, New York and Tokyo. As the project’s first artist to present a series of products, Hecox brings to life nontraditional depictions of the famed cities and their associated national emblems on our signature MacBook Sleeve and iPhone Slider Case.
Drawing inspiration from the complexity of the modern metropolis, Hecox’s stylistic approach is based on the process of amplification as it affects form and color: breaking down the image, removing certain elements and emphasizing others. In his original artistry for Curated by Arkitip, Hecox filters the mundane into captivating illustrations of London, New York and Tokyo seemingly filled with narratives beyond the images themselves, and applies them to MacBook Sleeves. The Hecox Slider Cases complement the three Sleeves, bearing instantly recognizable national symbols of the three cities. Hecox re-imagined the symbols through his stylistic approach, resulting in artistic interpretations that are both familiar and new.

The Hecox products for Curated by Arkitip are available now at Arkitip, better Incase retailers and select Apple stores.
For Griffin, this season has been about focusing on heritage styles and reworking favourites whilst developing new, soon to be classics. The label worked with some amazing fabrics from Italian camouflage linens to British Millerain dry wax cottons. The collection was inspired by the Griffin summer and lifestyle, creating a collection that has the Griffin mix of urban vs. country with all the elements of both, fashion vs. function, tradition vs. technology, etc.
The Baracuta colab also continues for SS10 with a London-manufactured, lightweight slim fit G9 in Sand with a contrasting check fabric produced by Italy’s Albini. All new products are now available here.
