Historia
Founded in 2011 by the Seoul-based creative group Wheelers Inc., Espionage emerged during a period of growth for independent Korean fashion. The brand focuses on the re-interpretation of historical military and naval uniforms. It gained cultural significance by prioritizing material sourcing and traditional manufacturing techniques over rapid trend cycles. This approach established the label as a key contributor to the contemporary heritage-wear movement within the East Asian streetwear landscape.
