Dubai, UAE: 15th, August: Billabong's founder, Gordon Merchant, began his legacy in 1973, chiefly by making homemade boardshorts sewn up on his kitchen table in Burleigh Point, Australia. Fast-forward four decades later, and today, the Garage Collection is a celebration of how far the brand has grown since its humble beginnings. A testament to being a true original, this right here is a reflection of Billabong's heritage. The NEW Garage Collection has been conceived to suit both urban and coastal styling. This is where our garments combine an authentic handmade look and feel, with modern functions. Consisting of engineered fabrications, and a variety of intricate stitch details and cut-and-sew elements, this season's series of threads is also an update of your standard military-inspired fabrication. Leading a camou twist to the canvas is a reinvigorated arsenal of Hawaiian Palm Tree inspired prints that add a unique detail and draw of individuality. To further blend in to the true form of jungle wear, the chosen colour palette for the collection is also kept muted, with a large injection of t-shirts, wovens, jackets, pants, walkshorts, backpacks, headwear and more in Mustard, Burnt Ochre, Tar, Indigo, and of course, Black. Wait no longer. Gear up, take charge and lead the pack with the Garage collection. The Billabong Garage collection, will be available at all Billabong stores across the UAE from August 2013.
