Nick & Chloe photograph New Era‘s flagbearers – individuals who are making a different and changing perceptions by doing what they love. Two of these flagbearers are graffiti artist/designer Eric Haze and musician Raphael Saadiq. Nick & Chloe capture genuine moments by photographing each artist in their element.
Legendary artist and designer Eric Haze collaborated with New Era on three designs for their upcoming capsule collection and has also joined the likes of Talib Kweli and Rafael Saadiq as an honorary Flagbearer for the brand. The campaign was shot by Nick & Chloe.
To celebrate, New Era is hosting a special launch event at their flagship store in NYC on September 7th. The event will include a music set by DJ Soul who has curated a playlist based on artists and labels that Eric has worked with in the past, whether it be logo designs or album artwork. The list is quite impressive from Beastie Boys, to LL Cool J, to Public Enemy.
Nick & Chloé photograph pro skater Stevie Williams for the New Era Flagbearer series. Brooklyn Brothers in New York commissioned the photography team to create portraits of local LA heroes. New Era chose musicians, artists, athletes, and writers with individual styles and who are making a difference and changing perceptions. Once homeless, Williams is now a pro skater, the founder of DGK, a skateboard design company, and a media mogul.
