Dalek, the celebrated Brooklyn based artist born out of graffiti has hooked up with Carrot for a collaboration. The Carrot/Dalek Boxset includes print, t-shirt and deck in superlimited edition of 100 pieces only. Pretty sick for a Serbian based company whose owner ended up in jail for his first run of t-shirts. Look for more from these guys in the future.
So what’s the deal with Carrot? It’s kind of weird for a clothing brand to name themselves after a penis shaped vegetable, but they do some cool stuff. Below is a statement placed on their website:
Urban lifestyle brand Carrot Clothing can trace its roots back to 1999, a tumultuous time for its owner’s native Serbia. In a noble effort to uplift lagging spirits and voice personal concerns about freedom, he began printing t-shirts featuring unmuted anti-war messages for family and friends. This move, though courageous, landed him in jail and at the mercy of unforgiving local authorities for spreading allegedly “terrorist” policies.
Since then, he has joined forces with skateboarders, street artists, and other creative minds to establish Carrot Clothing, a brand whose very essence is based upon the family-like relationships between global art, skate, and street communities. The brand aims to transcend typical business aspirations, hoping to inject the streetwear industry with its own unique perspective. In the two years since its inception, Carrot has developed into a globally-recognized lifestyle brand with an exciting collection available in more than 20 countries worldwide. Carrot hopes to continue on its promising journey with the hope of inspiring people in the same way that they themselves have been inspired by the remarkable feats of others.
I hope these guys take over the world, because they have a great attitude. Power to the people bitches.
