Driven by a cultural narrative, Denim Tears’ creative director<\/a><\/strong> continues to dissect the intersectionality of history and fashion through various collaborations. The brand, founded in 2019, transcends deductive notions such as the concept of ‘streetwear’<\/strong><\/a><\/em> and uses clothing to educate about history and its effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cultural revolution is still alive 75 years after the liner HMT Windrush<\/strong>, with more than 1,000 passengers on board, mostly from the Caribbean<\/strong>, arrived in London<\/strong>. At that time, the British government granted members of the colonies the right to live and work in the UK<\/strong>, and it was these passengers (and those that followed) who helped rebuild a nation in the face of racist and nationalist hostility. They managed to leave an inimitable mark on art, music, fashion and culture in general, despite both vocal and physical assaults.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, Denim Tears<\/strong> and Dr. Martens<\/strong> reclaim this legacy and recall the struggles faced by all migrants who must inevitably deal with the challenges and difficulties of adapting to a new culture. The aim is to highlight the role each society must play in creating an environment that fosters inclusion and empathy and accepts the fluidity of national identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two new silhouettes, available in two colour combinations, take the form of the British brand’s classic 1460 boot<\/strong> as well as the Penton<\/strong> moccasin<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
