Monday Drop Report: Shirts Live, Hoodies Close, BDUs Advancing

It’s Monday at Contraband Kansepts, and we’ve got major updates across the board. New gear is live, more is inbound, and the BDU program is finally moving from concept to production. Here’s your full sitrep:

🧵 Shirts — Live Now

Our first run of shirts is officially available and shipping now.
 No preorders. No wait.

  • Made with ring-spun cotton

  • 220gsm, medium-heavyweight

  • That real-deal 100% cotton feel — soft, sturdy, and built to wear
     These are the first official Contraband garments in the field. Grab one while you can.

 

 

🧥 Hoodies — Danger Close

Hoodies are almost here — and we mean danger close.

  • Ring-spun cotton, ultra-soft

  • 320gsm heavyweight build

  • Feels like premium 100% cotton because it is
     We’re wrapping final prep now. These drop soon, so stay frosty.

 

 

🪖 BDUs — In Motion

This is the one we’ve been waiting for. The Contraband BDUs are officially in development.

  • Met with our designer in Atlanta, finalized details

  • Notions (buttons, zippers, Velcro, elastic, trims, fabric) are ordered
     This is our most ambitious project to date — built for wear, not for fashion week.
