For fans of past CC editions, CC’s exciting marketplace has always been one of the key highlights, with a well curated line-up of the trendiest streetwear brands from the region. This year’s online marketplace takes it up a notch with custom-designed 360-degree rotatable interactive digital booth embedded with pop-ups that will feature visuals and videos of participating brands, showcase product launches and exclusive campaign highlights, as well as provide 3D product rendering and gamification options. For instance, cult label Monsoon Patrol will be dropping their 2nd edition, which includes the highly coveted Asics Gel Lyte III sneakers and also feature a hyper-realistic virtual personality called Rae (@here.is.rae) in their campaign.
Jeremy Tan, CC’s Convention Director, said: “Culture Cartel was founded three years ago with a passion for originality, and the aim to bring new order to the subculture world by connecting people and brands from across the world. Despite the current challenging pandemic situation, we continue to forge ahead with the gritty roots and grounded authenticity that are well-associated with the street culture community by pivoting the convention onto the online realm. As one of the stewards in Asia, we will once again converge the region’s best minds spanning art, toys, fashion, tattoos and music for a single-day online event targeted at Culture Cartel fans and the uninitiated alike to push the boundaries of street culture once again.”
