Dank Crab Apparel

‘Never mind us, this is all about you,’ brands their website and nothing could sum up Dank Crab Apparel more. Backed by a group of lads, DCA is all about staying connected and reppin’ threads from all corners of the globe. For both girls and guys, the line has longy’s, singlets, jumpers and more all tagged with their iconic crab logo. Besides being a regional brand, one of the coolest things about this laid back label is that all proceeds go back into stock and throwing a kick ass party at the end of the year – so get in quick and join the dank squad and maybe you’ll score yourself an invite.
If you catch yourself at a backpackers in the Himalaya’s and you see a fellow traveller with a DCA tee on, go say hi (after taking an insta shot of course.)
