Dennis Hopper: the clothing line

Before screen legend Dennis 'Apocalypse Now', 'Easy Rider' Hopper passed away, he apparently inked a deal with clothing/footwear company Vans to release a signature range of clothes.

The resulting items draw from his many years as an artist and photographer. Here's what the company say about the man, the legend. Be sure to check out the link below.

Before we lost one of American Art, Film and Photography's most influential iconoclasts Dennis Hopper collaborated with Vans to create a limited edition collection of footwear and apparel featuring some of his favorite work. Now, in honor of Dennis Hopper's monumental life and times, Vans presents that retrospective assortment. Available exclusively at Urban Outfitters Nationwide Fall, 2011 

 

You can look over the collection on the Vans site here.

One of his greatest and most striking black and white Americana-tinged photographs (below) adorns a shirt on the above link. To find out a little more about his probing work as a photographer, check out the Taschen site that published his now sold-out collection of photos in a stunning hardback book.
