Helas Smash Crewneck Sweatshirt

Seen here in a refreshing new season shade of mint green, this insulative Smash Crewneck Sweatshirt from Helas is designed to complement any contemporary skate or street wardrobe thanks to its well-rounded profile and its trans-seasonal appeal. Inspired by the brand’s self-confessed appreciation for nostalgic ‘80s aesthetics, this regular fitting sweater is made from 100% cotton and is styled with cuffed sleeves, a thick-band elasticated hemline and a chafe-resistant rib knit collar across the neckline that’s designed to withhold its shape even through the most strenuous of daily wears. A single embroidered brand-tab patch can be seen across the seam of the hem, whilst the immediate centre of the chest is decorated with a screen printed ‘Smash’ graphic that features bold blue ‘Helas’ print branding paired with dot-dash backing and a burnt orange rewrite of the brand’s iconic umbrella logo.

Famed for their ‘Ninja Tortures’, ‘Polo Club’ and ‘Fellas’ edits from across the globe, Helas is a euro-centric skatewear brand with a notable ‘80s aesthetic to match. Inspired by co-founder’s Puig, Khou and Brunel’s appreciation for gritty VHS short-forms and for their shared hometown Toulouse roots, Helas is a brand that never ceases to impress when it comes to striking the perfect balance between contemporary practicality and functional fit.
