When it comes to fashion, Malaysia is no stranger to style and innovation. But what happens when you bring together four of the country’s most prominent streetwear brands? You get “The Union” – a fashion collaboration that’s turning heads and making waves.

“The Union” is not just another clothing collection; it’s a celebration of Malaysia’s diverse culture and a call for unity among Malaysians. Featuring the creative forces of PMC, OPT, Stoned & Co, and Krookz, this collection represents a fusion of talents aimed at breaking down barriers and embracing the country’s rich heritage.

Timed perfectly to coincide with Malaysia Day, “The Union” is more than just a fashion statement; it’s a powerful message of solidarity and a reminder of what makes Malaysia unique. This two-day event is not just about clothes; it’s about art, culture, and the vibrant beverage scene that Malaysia has to offer.

At PMC, they’ve always been passionate about celebrating Malaysia’s culture and heritage. With “The Union,” they’re taking that passion to the next level by joining forces with the streetwear community. They believe that fashion is more than just clothing; it’s a language that can bring Malaysians together.

Streetwear has a way of transcending boundaries, and through this collaboration, PMC and its partners aim to create a sense of togetherness among Malaysians. By speaking the universal language of style and creativity, they hope to contribute to a better Malaysia and a brighter future for all.
