A few seasons ago Crooks & Castles introduced the Illuminati collection, a line for the more grown-up streetwear afficionado with more attention to detail and better materials used. Also the designs are more subtle. The collection is only available at the best Crooks & Castles retailers around the globe. Some pieces have already gotten into stores, but today we present you the complete Fall 2007 Illuminati collection.
The Crooks & Castles Fall 2007 Illuminati Collection is the largest they have presented so far and offers t-shirts, hoodies, crewneck sweaters, New Era caps, a stadium jacket, a tech shell, M-65 jackets and more. The designs are recognizable from the regular line but less colorful and more refined.
All in all it’s a very strong collection and we like what we are seeing from the brand. The Illuminati line definitely speaks to an older clientele that has an eye for something special. Expect the collection to appear in stores in the coming weeks.
