Treated Crew X Süssy X Saint Alfred
The Chicago collective known as
has been building momentum and gaining the attention of fans, but there's more to this organization than meets the eye. First of all, there are names that could be dropped and music associations that can be made, but that isn't even where the genius of the self-proclaimed "tribe" begins.
The
, while it may appear as a music or street affiliated collective, came together in the early 2000's when cousins Nigel Holt and Emmanual "Mano" Nickerson decided to enlist lifelong friend Mic Terror to make a stated effort for all things art and culture related in their hometown of Chicago. While the crew started mixing it up in the music scene nationally, traveling together, performing together, they were in action making a name for themselves in fashion in Japan. The three Treated founders began traveling the states and out to Japan incessantly, leaving their mark wherever they went and enlisting new, like minded members.
Some dozen or so years later the
is not only internationally known, but boasts members who specialize a myriad of vocations, from professional barbers and tattoo artists to directors, engineers, and of course, fashion designers. Don't get it twisted either--Treated isn't just for the fellas, Drea Smith of He Say, She Say and Pyyramids is down for the crew, too.
All of this brings us to cause for today's announcement:
Stüssy, founded in the early '80s, steeped in international culture has joined together with the creative collective and longtime friends and family Chicago-based boutique and brand
to present the “Treated Tribe” collection. The range consists of a crewneck sweatshirt, long sleeve T-shirt, three graphic short sleeve T-shirts, and a beanie all designed and curated exclusively by crew members. In addition to the clothing collaboration Treated Crew will release a 15 track album[,] which features a slew of both established artists and a whole new generation of stars.
