Champion x HoMie : Fashion for a Cause
Champion are back with the latest in their collaborations with HoMie - a streetwear brand with a difference.
HoMie is not your typical fashion brand. Founded in 2015 by two young Australians, Marcus Crook and Nick Pearce, HoMie's mission extends far beyond designing streetwear-inspired clothing. The brand's core purpose is to provide essential support to those experiencing homelessness. This unique blend of fashion and philanthropy sets HoMie apart from the crowd, as a fashion brand that truly stands for something meaningful.
Fashion with a Purpose
One of HoMie's initiatives is the Changing Room. This unique concept store, located in Melbourne, provides a dignified shopping experience for people experiencing homelessness. Unlike traditional stores, the Changing Room does not have price tags on its clothing items. Instead, customers are invited to choose what they love and pay with a token earned through volunteering or community involvement. This innovative approach empowers those in need, giving them a sense of ownership and allowing them to select the clothing that resonates with their personal style.
HoMie goes the extra mile in supporting individuals affected by homelessness. Through their Pathway Alliance program, they offer job training, employment opportunities, and wraparound support services. This comprehensive approach helps break the cycle of homelessness by equipping individuals with the skills and confidence needed to secure stable employment and rebuild their lives. HoMie is not just providing clothing; they are offering a pathway to a better future.
The Collection
Blending style with social impact, the Champion x HoMie collection features two hoodies, a jacket, a crew neck sweater, baseball cap and crew socks.
Showcasing a streetwear-inspired graphic logo, the collaboration features an amalgamation of the Champion and HoMie logos in purple camouflage print. Providing your outfit with the understated cool to allow you to mix and match with your existing wardrobe, as well as the edge to give it a street style flavour.
The Hoodie
The heavyweight hoodie has a soft fleece lining and generously proportioned hood to ensure you stay warm with every wear. The drawstrings provide adjustability while the slouchy fit ups the cosy vibes.
The Reversible Jacket
The reversible jacket is the ideal winter warmer, offering two looks; one is a dark brown colourway with a textured synthetic fabrication, and the other a striking all-over purple camouflage print with a soft handfeel.
The Crew Neck
Lighter than a hoodie, the crew neck still allows for layering potential, and maintains the understated essence of the collection. The ribbed crew neckline, elasticised trims and slightly dropped shoulders provide a slouchy look which appears effortless no matter what you pair it with.
The Accessories
Add the finishing touches to your fit with a baseball cap in all-over purple camouflage print and a pair of crew socks in white and camo options.
