On the men’s side, Spring ’15 transports us to the coast with enlarged sea anemone and palm frond prints. But a closer look will reveal a few micro surprises: think wetsuit-like seams on overcoats, anoraks featuring zippered mesh inserts, and trousers with discreet neon stripes. It’s the athletic-inspired, blue-and-neon collection fit for escapists. A long-sleeve pullover is embossed with the square Opening Ceremony logo. Includes ribbed elastic at the crewneck, cuffs, and hem.

Presenting the latest addition to the Wish shelves is New York’s, Opening Ceremony. Founded in 2002 by two friends from UC Berkeley, Carol Lim and Humberto leon, as a place to share their passion for travel, art, and passion. Inspired by a trip to Hong Kong, the two decided to leave their jobs in corporate fashion to realize their unique dream. What began as a single store on a quiet street in downtown New York is now a global community in New York, London, and Los Angeles, a department store in Tokyo, a wholesale showroom, an in-house clothing line, a blog, an e-commerce site, a TV channel, and an annual magazine.
For the 2014 Fall Collection, We teamed up with the homie, Raury for a taut arrangement of imagery that highlights various pieces from the range.

In addition to the apparel, the range also includes accessories and footwear featuring stitching elements more commonly seen on baseballs and baseball gloves.
After already seeing a release from the Opening Ceremony x adidas Originals camp for the Fall/Winter 2013 season in the form of the OC BBALL Collection, the wildly successful collaboration bares yet another brilliant piece.

Suited for outdoor activity, the durable Wheat colored upper sits atop a thick Black sole. With hits of Maroon located on the side panels and upper heel, thick Teal rope laces hold everything together.
