What to know about Full Circle Energy
Every piece is a one-off
Vintage and secondhand garments are sourced and hand-painted individually, so there are no repeat production runs and no two items match.
One graphic language, applied everywhere
Psychedelic concentric circles and swirls in saturated candy tones run across hoodies, knit sweaters, T-shirts and distressed denim.
Small studio, department-store shelf
Founded in 2013 by photographer Sam Massey, it remains a small independent LA operation while stocking SSENSE at mid-to-high prices.
