In what has seem to become the new norm, streetwear is currently embroiled in a feverish game of one-upsmanship in a bid to see who can land the most insane, leftfield collaboration. From Advisory Board Crystals’ shirt with Wikipedia to Japanese label BEAMS’ recycled designs using Ziploc bags, streetwear has proven that no brand is off limits, no matter how tangential to fashion it may be.
Enter streetwear pioneer and Bape creator, Nigo, who has returned with his new label, Human Made, for a new collaboration with none other than iconic fast food brand, KFC. Arising out of a lifelong obsession with the brands mascot, Colonel Sanders, Nigo was invited by KFC to tour the company’s headquarters and learn how to make fried chicken.
