I remember buying my first pair of Maharishi Sno Pants way back when Nike Rifts were cool and I worn Aquasocks around the streets…Now Maharishi are again bubbling on the cusp of being one of the coolest and innovative streetwear labels out there once again.
Maharishi presents their Autumn Winter 2011 collection, a modern Special Forces inspired range entitled ‘Into The Light:Survival 2012’. The team have utilized a high tech webbing and other technical details, focusing on protection and function for an urban environment. This season we see the use of Swiss riri waterproof zips as well as many Swiss made fabrics “including the densely woven naturally waterproof organic cotton ETA, Schoeller cloth with anti-abrasion Kevlar fibres, alongside more elaborate pieces in several types of 3M reflective material which only turn on when exposed to direct white light; incorporated within construction thread, cloth, print ink and embroidery threads. maharishi has long produced all its jersey and sweat in Organic yarn, and this season many of the wovens are also organic.” Available now here
