Damn! these are such an eye candy. Head to Field Candy to see amazing tent designs.




Human Made - Kopi T-Shirt

From A Bathing Ape and BAPE founder Nigo, Human Made is a vintage-inspired collection of authentic pieces with creativity and quality at the core of each product. Nigo has decided to dig even deeper into his legendary archive and, working with the foremost vintage replica company Warehouse, he has created a new brand, Human Made.

Coffee is a recurring theme for Human Made: their Tokyo flagship store is called Cold Coffee and this collection has been peppered with references to Kopi luwak, or civet coffee, which is the world’s most expensive variety of everyone’s favourite morning wake-up-juice.

Kopi luwak is special because it is made using beans that are first eaten and partly digested by the Asian Palm Civet – that’s the cheeky-looking half-cat-half-monkey creature on the front of this t-shirt. Particular enzymes in the Civet’s gut gives the coffee a special smooth quality, producing what many call the world’s best cup of coffee – it’s certainly the most expensive at over $100 a cup. This t-shirt is Nigo’s celebration of that remarkable process.

The t-shirt itself is made from thick and premium cotton that has a substantial vintage feel to it. There is also a Human Made logo on the back
