Description
Updated with new content, the revised second edition of Clarks in Jamaica includes interview snippets with dancehall artists such as Ninjaman, Chronixx and Jahvillani, behind-the-scenes photographs from the film Rockers, insights into Jamaica’s favourite styles of Clarks from former company employees who were involved in their creation, and an expanded chapter on Jamaican style, detailing the histories of fashion staples such as the string vest (mesh marina), Arrow shirt, knits ganzie and beaver hat.
Thoroughly researched and beautifully presented, Clarks in Jamaica is a fitting tribute to Clarks’ deep roots in Jamaican culture and the rich cultural exchange that has taken place between Jamaica and the UK.
