High Tea

Matt Goias and The Class Trip Corporation conceptualized, produced, and co-hosted an elegant High Tea event at the luxurious 2E Lounge at The Pierre Hotel to celebrate the launch of the Hiromi sneaker collaboration between LACOSTE and Married To The M.O.B.

M.O.B. Affiliated

The Class Trip Corporation teamed up LACOSTE with street-savvy New York brand Married to the Mob to create a lace hi-top sneaker for women in two shades of gold and purple. They will be released in the week of Valentine’s Day on the MOB website www.mttmnyc.com as well as hand-picked specialty stores worldwide including colette in Paris and key US LACOSTE flagships.

Glass Trip

In 1980, during the Golden Age of Tennis, LACOSTE expanded its product offering and released its first original eyewear products. Inspired by the origins of the brand, that first pair of ‘La Lunette LACOSTE’ sunglasses was a pilot-style frame called ‘101’. The LACOSTE 101 featured premium quality materials with unique styling and reflected the brand’s sporty elegance, making it immediately at home both on and off the court just like the iconic 1212 polo. To celebrate the 30^th anniversary of the 101, LACOSTE is releasing a limited edition of 1000 pairs.

Lacoste X Campanas

Lacoste teamed up with the Campanas brothers to create an amazing, ultra limited edition line for this holiday season.

The Afflicted Yard

This Thursday night, we are pleased to be hosting an outdoor exhibition of the fine photography of notorious, Kingston, Jamaica photographer, Peter Dean Rickards.

Rickards’ photos have been featured in shows and media around the world including French Vogue and many others.

Renowned for his powerful imagery of Jamaican life, he also gained a huge amount of attention for being the guy who took the photos of British artist Banksy’s face and sold them to a London tabloid.

This Thursday, Peter will be projecting a selection of his photography onto the wall at Habana Outpost. Come and meet this legendary enfant terrible.
