The day is almost upon us. This Thursday, November 22, Basketball retail giant TITAN, local street wear powerhouse UNSCHLD, and the legendary artist SBTG join forces once again for another monumental collaboration.
"RETURN TO DEER VALLEY" is the sequel to the highly successful DEER VALLEY TITANS project of 2011. The Deer Valley Titans - consisting of Andro Torres, Brandon Cablay, Tony Dela Cruz, Marc Pingris, PJ Simon, Vaughn Canta, and Sudan Daniel - are set to return stronger than ever to defend the throne they conquered.
This year, the DEER VALLEY TITANS collection finds inspiration from the 90's - a throwback to all things fresh!
Peep game.

To celebrate the opening of its newest store at Bonifacio Global
City, Titan, the first and only basketball specialty concept store in the
country, once again sets in motion a collaboration with local clothing brand
UNSCHLD and Singapore-based artist, SBTG (Mark Ong) for the second installment
of the Deer Valley Titans, a clothing line based on the fictitious AAU
basketball team set in the not so distant future. Following their
successful three-way collaboration last year, the stage is once again set for a
Return to Deer Valley.
The Deer Valley Titans is a fictional basketball team inspired
by the vision of Titan’s co-founder, Jeffrey Cariaso: for Titan
to eventually have its own AAU ball club based out of the US with a core group
of players comprised mostly of kids with Filipino roots, who all share the same
talent and passion for the game. The Deer Valley Titans is also the name of
Titan’s real-life team of basketball athletes which includes Tony Dela Cruz,
Brandon Cablay, Vaughn Canta, Sudan Daniel, Andro Torres, Gerald Anderson and
new additions this year in Peter June Simon, Marc Pingris and Keith Jensen.
This
November, following the release of the “Varsity Bones” collection in 2011, the
Deer Valley Titans return to the memory of when and
where they first fell in love with basketball and ponder on what life would
have been if it weren’t for the sport. Their collective insights served as the
inspiration for the UNSCHLD-designed clothing collection which also sees a
return to the Golden Era of the 90’s: crewnecks, button downs and anoraks in
loud prints and colors, nylon camp caps and cotton twill snapbacks and jerseys
patterned after the colorways of the basketball dream teams of the 1990s.
In addition, the SBTG-designed pieces also take a similar
journey back to the days of vintage Americana through the lens of team sport.
The collection features key products that take design cues from old-school
football sweaters and tees, varsity uniforms and bowling shirts from decades
past.
The Deer Valley Titans: Return to Deer Valley Capsule Collection
will be unveiled exclusively on November 22, 2012 at 6PM at the new Titan
Flagship Store, 2 Parkade, Fort Bonifacio Global City in Taguig.
