Description
Inspired by Singapore’s iconic Tembusu tree, these cargo pants bring a piece of our natural landscape into a contemporary streetwear silhouette. Available in dark navy and khaki, each pair features batik detailing integrated across the utility pockets, contrasting the structured cargo form with the character of traditional craft.
For this piece, we wanted to take that familiar part of home and reinterpret its forms through batik, turning nature into something made for the streets. Every tembusu motif is drawn and waxed by hand, by beneficiaries with special needs from Arts@Metta. So differences in the lines, colours and details are part of the piece.
Only 100 pieces will ever be made. Each one, 1 of 1.
