CBE’s spring line is so classic and simple—a collection of cleverly designed basics.  Mastering the unisex cut in CBE’s “SLIM” and “BALL” t-shirts leaves the “CLASSIC” cut mostly for men and the inventive “DUO” for the ladies.  Along side these jersey t’s, CBE has added a Crew to the spring line-up made in fleece and ideal for wear in the spring and summer evening hours.  CBE’s Spring line is mostly tonal in its colour palette of black, white, charcoal stripe and salt & pepper, with only one garment in navy and another in gold, along with some accents in contrast colour stitching.  Easy style and casual comfort—a smart purchase for your summer wardrobe.

One girl is Nat (The Geek) and the other is Marie (The Nerd). One is taller than the other and one owns more bustiers than the other. They are two brunettes treading in a blond girl’s world. They know no fear, only kick-ass viral content, apps, websites, music, trending topics and more. You can watch them every week at 9pm (or later) for the newest live-streaming talk show to hit the inter web.

So while on the show we did what we do best: create and collaborate. Live on their show, we let our collective brain power collide to create this new limited line of Tees: Nat&Marie + CBE.

So tune into Na&Marie on Wednesday at 9pm, or tweet them @NatandMarie, or even visit their Tumblr: natandmarie.tumblr.com/

3 COLOURWAYS:
Charcoal with contrast stitching in Royal Blue
Navy & Black with contrast stitching in Red
Grey Fleck with contrast stitching in Yellow

All made of CBE’s premium cotton blend.

CBE Booth N-42:

Recently Clothing Brand Experiment paired up with Paramount for the launch and promotion of Jeff, Who Lives at Home. The main character Jeff (Jason Segel) wears a hoody the the entire film. So we decided to out fit his character in different hoodies. Here’s what we came up with:

As part of this partnership we also gave away tickets for the advance screen that happened on March 14th. It was fun.

Out of this World!

CBE’s newest distressed limited line of 42 hoodies - the GALAXY LINE. With light tones in brown, pink, salmon, purple and a scattered fleck throughout we hope you feel taken away into another world by this line. With a sun-faded-look and the softest feel yet, this CBE hoody will take you nicely into the warmth of Spring and keep you up late on any Summer evening gazing at the stars.
