R13

История моды
Chris Leba founded R13 in 2009 while serving as a senior executive at Ralph Lauren. He operated the brand anonymously for several years to maintain a focus on the product rather than his industry status. R13 is recognized for its role in elevating distressed streetwear to the high-fashion runway. It draws heavy inspiration from the 1990s Seattle music scene and British punk movements, influencing the contemporary resurgence of the grunge aesthetic in luxury retail.
