The palette draws inspiration from the trees of Lebanon, where Kar grew up, and a specific shade of green found on Ferves Rangers – a rare Italian off-road vehicle manufactured during the 60s and 70s. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn addition there are two graphic print t-shirts, and a series of accessories and gadgets, including two caps and a Nalgene water bottle.
