196 Wright Street Clothing Brand
Inspired by a share house that became a creative epicentre in 2010, 196 Wright Street is more than just a brand—it’s a tribute to a place that fostered art, music, and a tight-knit community. The house was known for its wild parties, live music, and an impromptu art gallery, becoming a hub for creativity and self-expression. It was home to a group of individuals who, through their shared experiences, contributed to a vibrant, raw culture that left a lasting impact on everyone who passed through.
Today, 196 Wright Street carries that spirit forward by offering truly unique pieces of clothing. Whether it’s a one-off item found in a random op shop in a country town, a repurposed favourite t-shirt from your childhood, or a hand-picked piece with a story to tell, each item reflects personal history and a sense of discovery. While there are new products in the mix, the heart of the brand lies in these special, one-of-a-kind pieces.
Community-based pop-ups are a key part of the brand, where art is created in real-time and transferred onto these distinctive garments, making each piece even more unique and meaningful.
In addition to its clothing line, 196 Wright Street features a collection of true-to-form model world trains, offering graffiti artists the chance to finish the train that didn’t stop long enough. Whether it’s a New York subway car or a Trans-Adelaide Red Hen, these models bring the legendary canvases of the graffiti world into the hands of the artists. With interchangeable graffiti panels, artists can finally complete the pieces they’ve always dreamed of. It’s more than just a model; it’s a way to connect with the global culture of graffiti and leave a mark on the trains that have inspired artists for generations.
