Paul Smith

Tour de Big Apple

Designed for Paul Smith Junior, boys. A busy design was required which would offer a lot of ‘talkability’ based on the idea of ‘Tour de Big Apple’. 

The design features many iconic New York landmarks as well as quirky additions such as domino tower blocks, a lost Lock Ness monster, aliens, a dinosaur and a sock monkey. Zooming around the city are bikes and skateboards and the occasional scooter.

The Design was printed on a variety of fabrics. Shirts and sweatshirts were sold as part of the collection in many high end stores such as Harrods.
