We give you a first look at Hong Kong based N4E1’s Fall/Winter 2008 collection. The brand has been around for a couple of seasons and we have reported about them before. Up until recently we had the impression the direction of the brand had been lost or at least blurry, as every season was looking a little different, mixing workwear with other styles and we could not really figure out a clear message behind N4E1 (Not For Everyone).
The more pleased we are with their new Fall/Winter 2008 collection. The entire collection is cut & sew and takes clear inspiration from high-end Japanese collections, concentrating on cuts and fitting as well as adding just the right amount of details to product. You will find leather quilted jackets, denims, button up shirts, flannels, crewnecks, hoodies, tee’s, and accessories in the new line.The color palette is simple, yet strong, and the line is all in all round.
Have a further look at the new collection after the jump.

After the Rainbow C 5 Color and Bumbaclot’s rasta flavor launch, CLOT pushes out another new summer design, the “Round and Around” tee.
The term “Round and Around” have been used in many songs. The term also means recycling. CLOT wants to bring these two elements together and convey the importance of the message.  Recycle is to limit the world’s waste and garbage, and CLOT wants to spread out the message of keeping our environment clean. The green philosophy has always been in the back of CLOT’s mind. The new renovation of the retail store Juice clearly follows this philosophy. The retail store uses a lot more natural light than the previous store. Also, the store’s air conditioning is auto controlled based on outside’s weather temperature, thus it will save energy on cooler days.
The “Round and Around” graphic cleverly fits into the CLOT logo. Additionally, “CLOTINC.COM” is displayed in LED type, which brings out its playfulness and the indication of the online store’s birth.
The new design tag can be found inside CLOT’s spring/summer collection. CLOT’s “Round and Around” tee will be launched in 2 colors, both priced at HKD530. The black version will exclusively be available at Juice and the grey version will entirely be offered only at the online store. “Round and Around” will be available at the start of July 26.

Today we can show you some of the merchandise created for the upcoming exhibition of artist Eric Haze in Hong Kong – Full Circle. Since the exhibition is hosted by 8Five2, 24Herbs and 55DSL, the artist also worked with them on some merchandise.

The Juice Hong Kong store, operated by the CLOT crew, was recently renovated. We reported about it and showed you some of the re-opening items. Here we can give you a look at the new store now.
The new look is much cleaner and minimalist than before. White and light woods have been used throughout the entire store. Also they take a bit of a new approach in terms of products and will become a real concept store in the next couple of months, taking on board electronics and other product categories next to clothing and accessories.

About a year ago Visvim opened their first F.I.L. store outside of Japan, in Hong Kong. Since then many other Japanese brands have joined them in Hong Kong. Soon they will be celebrating the 1rst anniversary of the store and of course they have some special product prepared for the occasion.
They will be releasing the Folk Bear Foot FBT Shaman in a range of colorways and also the Patchwork Ballistic 20 backpack. Both pieces are beautiful and will only be released in Hong Kong. Certainly worth the trip.
Hypebeast interviewed Visvim’s head designer and founder Hiroki Nakamura about the move to Hong Kong. Read the interview here.
After the jump a look at all the other colorways of the FBT Shaman and of course also a look at the patchwork backpack.
