Mike & Chris
A simple concept has turned into a huge success for husband and wife design duo Mike Gonzalez and Christine Park-Gonzalez, whose line of innovative, urban- inspired hoodies. The line merges Mike's Los Angeles background and Christine's New York roots. "The way I see hoodies is that it's like a staple of everyone's closet- it's part of the urban uniform", Gonzalez said. "We wanted to create something that you could do whatever you want with. You can put it on with a wife beater, flip-flops and a pair of jeans." The line has a casual chic look with pieces that are feminine yet have a hint of tailored masculinity with a downtown feel. All of the clothing incorporates Mike & Chris' signature details, such as shirring, gold eyelets and a center back seam and oversized buttons. The hoodies are constructed from fleece and lambskin aged and hand-stressed for a vintage look.
