Hong Kong’s Star Ferry boatmen have been wearing this season‘s best tracksuit for decades.
Yeti Out cut their new NO CODES capsule from the navy uniform worn by the crew of the 天星小輪 (tiānxīng xiǎolún, ”Star Ferry“). Co-founder Arthur Bray lives in Kowloon and rides the crossing most days, and that’s what pushed him to make a tracksuit that reads as Hong Kong without being too on the nose.
The brand‘s framing is club culture without borders and, as the name says, no dress codes: the same fit works for a sweaty dancefloor, a restaurant shift, or the rave you go straight to from work, out the door in the city and out all night. Ahead of the drop, they put the collection on Paris artist Oko Ebombo and filmed a summer afternoon with him.
It landed exclusively at Hong Kong concept store J-01 before going global online on August 6.

Horses were our OG ride-or-die for 6,000 years. Then cars showed up and they got ghosted. But the trust and bond between man and horse doesn’t end there.
The creative forces behind @cavalluna.showasia have welcomed them back — as beloved performance companions for the first time in Hong Kong. A highly elaborate dance routine; featuring an impressive flex of acrobatic skill and delicate horsemanship, takes centre stage on Sept 8 & 10–13 at Kai Tak Arena, marking the show`s first stop outside of Europe in its 23-year history.
And in Hong Kong, the audience are no strangers to horses (Happy Wednesdays, anyone?)
To see who else is excited about CAVALLUNA, we stopped people on the streets in Hong Kong to ask what horses mean to them, whether they’ve seen them do tricks before, and more.

A crudely-animated cartoon ox has become the biggest internet mascot on Chinese social media in weeks.
Major outlets are already cashing in on the coverage. On social media, people have gone one step further, calling it China’s cult god. 牛来 (Niu Lai) climbed to the top of cinemas‘ daily screening charts nationwide, and screenings turned into actual events. @rect_repair ’s Saturday screening sold out in under three hours, with fans showing up carrying beef jerky and homemade merch.
Nobody can quite explain why, beyond the fact that it‘s genuinely eye-catching. China’s cult-film scene never really had its icon. Whatever Niu Lai does from here, the sheer playfulness of it is exactly what this moment needed.

Imagine getting into an MFA program, and this is the syllabus you’re handed: Feng Shui Striptease. An ADHD Classroom. A workshop on your mother‘s tools. A class that teaches you to quit beauty.
None of it looks like a real syllabus, because it isn’t one. Enter 山寨MFA @shanzhaimfa (shānzhài MFA, ”knockoff MFA“) a nomadic artist collective born somewhere between Dali and Chaoshan, currently taking over @c.h.e.r.u.b.y , an institution operating at the intersection of art and fashion on Changle Road, for two weeks. They call the whole thing the ”Drifting Economic Model“: making the puppets and performing with them count as the same labor.
Shanzhai means ”knockoff.“ But here, it‘s reclaiming the idea of art education and relocating it to places where art isn’t supposed to happen.
If the real degree‘s out of reach, they just built one.

Before smartphones took over, summer break meant browser windows, Flash games, and keyboard co-op. Those long afternoons were spent pulling new friends over to your house, squeezing onto a single chair with the fan blowing, and taking turns guiding Fireboy and Watergirl through another level. From 4399 to QQ Zone, these six websites were the shared digital playground of Chinese millennials.
