Blocks 2 Hills: A Story of Roots and Ambition

In collaboration with HdPc, AGAINSTLAB. presents Blocks 2 Hills, a collection that blends craftsmanship with ambition. This collaboration isn’t just about clothing; it’s a narrative—a story about rising from the blocks and making it to the hills.

The highlight of this collection is the Ringgit Loafers, our take on the classic penny loafers, reimagined with a fresh perspective. The name “Ringgit” ties the design back to Malaysian roots, giving it a local twist while keeping it timeless and versatile. Crafted with two-toned leather, crocodile-textured uppers, and crinkled leather detailing, these loafers are built for comfort and durability without compromising style. A textured outsole ensures the perfect balance of function and form, making them wearable for any occasion.

Blocks 2 Hills is more than just the name of a collection—it’s about resilience, growth, and cultural pride. The collection tells the story of moving from the blocks, where grit and hustle are born, to the hills, a symbol of achievement and ambition. Every piece in this collection, from the loafers to timeless statement pieces, reflects this journey—grounded in the roots that shape us but always reaching for more.

This collaboration also brings you thoughtful design details and elevated staples that speak to the streets while celebrating heritage. Whether you’re dressing for the blocks or stepping into the hills, these pieces carry the essence of ambition and individuality.

'Celebrate me in the blocks, Bury me in the hills'
