The NOWEAR “Barbed Wire” Distressed Hoodie embodies the label’s raw aesthetic — a balance of rebellion, texture, and conceptual restraint. Crafted from heavyweight cotton fleece, the hoodie is hand-treated for a worn, lived-in finish that gives every piece its own unique patina.
The chest features the NWR insignia, rendered in a barbed wire embroidery — a symbol of tension and edge, capturing NOWEAR’s philosophy of strength through simplicity. Every detail, from the small abrasions around the neckline and sleeves to the faded wash, contributes to a sense of quiet defiance and authenticity.
Cut with an oversized silhouette and dropped shoulders, the hoodie drapes naturally for a relaxed yet structured look. A kangaroo pocket and ribbed cuffs anchor the design, while subtle distressing throughout completes its elevated, post-industrial tone.
