What’s a non-Jewish guy doing making Jewish fashion? It is all about fighting antisemitism and promoting “Jewish chic”, according to Hannes Hein, the owner of Ook Fashion.
The Munich-based artist designed his caps and hair accessories with Jewish symbols with the hope that people would start wearing them on the streets of Germany.
“My goal is to bring Jewish themes back to everyday life,” said Mr Hein, whose mother had Jewish roots.
Mr Hein was inspired to design these accessories in 2009 after noticing the prevalence of neo-Nazi propaganda while on business trips to Dresden.
