Marseille-inspired capsule collection signals Kaporal revival

06/12/2023

Denim brand Kaporal has launched a new capsule collection with rap-inspired urban fashion brand Mecs de la Rue.

Both companies have described the collection jeans, denim jackets and T-shirts as a good reflection of the rebellious spirit of their home city, Marseille.

Kaporal emerged from financial problems earlier this year under new leadership. Its Marseille roots provided a clear link to Mecs de la Rue, which emerged in the city in the 1990s, quickly developing a strong connection to local musicians and artists.
