In a landmark collaboration, Roots and Clot unveil two exclusive collections, commemorating Roots’ 50th and Clot’s 20th anniversaries. The inaugural collection, ‘Go Outside: You’ll Be Glad,’ launches in Canada and Asia, with a second collection set for January 13, coinciding with the Lunar New Year.
This gender-inclusive collection boasts wardrobe essentials, including a Leather Varsity Jacket, Crewnecks, Kanga Hoodies, and Track Pants, priced from $18 to $1,398 CAD. Co-designed by Edison Chen, founder and creative director of Clot, the collection features premium embroidery and handcrafted pieces from the Roots Toronto factory.
Chen emphasizes inclusivity and the celebration of East streetwear culture. «Collaborating with the iconic Roots for Clot’s 20th anniversary aligns with our shared ethos: combining style and culture to bring people together.»
Set against Vancouver’s backdrop, the campaign melds street style photography with a global perspective and the rugged Canadian wilderness. The ‘Go Outside’ manifesto encourages wearers to reconnect with nature and city life.
Meghan Roach, Roots CEO, notes, «It’s a fusion of Edison’s Vancouver heritage and our Canadian roots, celebrating the outdoors.» The collection isn’t just fashion; it’s a shared call to embrace nature and city life.
The upcoming Lunar New Year collection includes fleece, tees, and accessories. Available on Tmall (CLOT and Roots), Roots stores in Canada, the US, and Taiwan, JUICE stores in China, and roots.com, these collections blend heritage and streetwear, inviting you to explore both style and the world.
Celebrate Roots and Clot’s legacy—where fashion meets exploration.
