Dockers x Urban Outfitters Mobile Shop

Dockers x Urban Outfitters Mobile Shop

Urban Outfitters is taking their store on the road to visit four cities over the next four weeks. The fully functioning mobile mini store is made from two 20′ x 8′ shipping containers and will be stocked with a little bit of everything. Dockers joined the project by helping to create a mobile art gallery, which is headlined by South Caroline based artist Hollis Brown Thornton, alongside four up and coming artists from the Southeast. The Gallery showcases each artist’s version of khaki using raw Dockers ‘Alpha’ Khaki material.

Throughout October, the store will be traveling 928 miles across the Southeast United States with stops in Columbia, SC, Athens, GA, Tallahassee, FL and Knoxville, TN.

Steven Alan for Dockers Fall/Winter 2010

Steven Alan for Dockers Fall/Winter 2010

New York-based designer Steven Alan has teamed up with the king of khakis — Dockers — to deliver a special collaboration for Fall 2010. The capsule collection represents highlights from both brands with khakis from Dockers and shirting from Steven Alan. When discussing Dockers and this co-branded line, Steven Alan said, “I always liked the idea of working with a heritage company and going to the roots of what they’re about and then re-inventing it.” Well, he’s known for doing timeless remakes of classics so it’s no surprise the khakis in this collection, as well as the other pieces, are so well-thought-out and impeccably designed.

We think it’s safe to say this will be one of the most sought-after lines for the fall as it features some well-crafted pieces at a pretty affordable price point. Prices range from $248 for jackets, ties for $48, woven shirts for $148 and a group of khaki pants for $128. Look for the Steven Alan for Dockers collection to start hitting select Barneys stores, as well as the Steven Alan Annex shops sometime in early October.
