Off White label , redefine streetwear with a new perspective. Although finding the aesthetic interesting, it has a very strong totemic aspect: difficult to distance yourself from the mass when you imitate it to the letter.

This is notably thanks to the fine line of the sweatpants but also the leg which ends with a ribbed edge, nicely finishing the silhouette.
