DUKE + DEXTER, the London-based label renowned for revitalizing loafers, has ventured into the realm of ready-to-wear with its inaugural clothing line. Dubbed as a “collection for those seeking the thrill of white-knuckle driving,” the new lineup pledges the same unparalleled quality — now embodied in clothing.
Showcasing graphics crafted by D+D’s in-house designers, the collection draws inspiration from vintage motorsport aesthetics and undergoes a custom fade-out dye process for a weathered, lived-in look. Boasting a boxy, oversized silhouette, the collection comprises a range of T-shirts and hoodies in white, oat marl, and charcoal grey.
True to DUKE + DEXTER’s ethos, quality reigns supreme in this capsule, with no compromises. Utilizing a water-based screen-printing method, the collection employs organic vegetable and mineral dyes, demonstrating responsible design practices through water-reusing techniques. Likewise, the collection is tailored with a specific GSM (grams per square meter), aiming to be light enough for summer wear yet substantial enough to maintain the brand’s signature quality.
Of course, true to the essence of DUKE + DEXTER, loafers remain integral. The new DUKE RACING collection also introduces a variety of Printed Penny Loafers. Explore the collection below before it debuts on the website on April 25th.
