4 Stroke’s launch of the Fall ‘09 line will amaze the fashion world beginning this trade show season. The provocative line, titled Invision/Invasion, shows the scope of the label under the design direction of Nathaniel Freeman.

Freeman fuses the spirit of the resistance of Czech protesters towards the Russian invasion of Prague into the design of 4 Stroke’s New York City appeal. The result proved to be successful as Fall ‘09 is set to birth a new direction in denim. The collection introduces the “work-wear trouser for men and women; keeping washes smokey and dirty on blacktopped green selvage denim, 100% pima cotton with black fill and white with black fill denim,” says Freeman. “Also, color is a big focus with garment dyed denim deep purple, and bright raspberry. “

Striving to elevate the line into the couture realm, the label produced full a denim collection, rather than traditional bottoms. The men’s collection consists of a men’s denim shirt and trench with hard military inspired lines, while the women’s will offer a pillow case dress and reversible denim cloak.
