MARSMARSMARS unveils their new 5-piece collection, which will serve as the first installment of their upcoming winter series. It features the “We Come In Peace” and “Reaper of Worlds” designs. Check out what the South Florida brand had to say about their new release:
‘We Come In Peace’ is the representation of how we go about our lives working with and helping everyone we can. We believe you should approach every situation with a peace of mind knowing that you can gain something or give something to each and every person. The design which was done by godsteeth in the UK is a skull which signifies any creature surrounded by the peaceful waves it is giving off.
On the flip side we have the ‘Reaper of Worlds’ design. As you know sometimes things aren’t always peaceful and it is time to get a little dark and twisted. This design done by corpsetits is symbolic of the death you must provide to other people’s worlds who are doing wrong. It features our alien version of the grim reaper protecting its own universe.
Essentially these are two designs that represent different points in life and ways to deal with things that we all go through. Whether that be with peace or death is only for each person to decide for them self.
With the products ranging from $20-$40, the first part of the Winter collection is available for sale online while supplies lasts. While you’re at it, make sure you also take a look at past releases from the South Florida brand.

UPCOMING PROJECT: Concrete Garden
ArchDuke, the empowering hip hop duo from Indiana, are driven by inspiring their peers to strive for success. Their single “Somewhere In The Future” is a plan of perseverance, stopping at nothing to reach their dreams and goals. The members of ArchDuke, Charity and Jacob, are students themselves at Wiley College. Their hope is to reach the minds and touch the souls of HBCU students just like them. “Somewhere In The Future”, the single from ArchDuke’s debut project Concrete Garden, is a message of persistence and a reminder to keep working toward your dreams, no matter how far they may seem.
This new video was directed, filmed, written, produced, arranged, and performed all completely by HBCU students at Wiley College. The entire idea is to portray young black youth in a positive light during a current period in which they are normally demonized.
