Brand profile:
WORKER PLAYGROUND is a Macao fashion label born in 2012, mainly designing and making jackets. The label uses the old Macao Workers’ Sportsground (where Grand Lisboa stands now) as inspiration for its name, bearing historical significance for Macao. The label hopes that it will be as popular as Workers’ Stadium, which is in every city in China.
The early label slogan was “Be True to Your Playground”, meaning that everyone has a playground in their own heart. It is hoped that everyone can be loyal to the life they choose, expressing their own style through this label. The latest brand slogan is “For Boys Want to Be Men, For Men Want to Be Boys”. Since this is a men’s wear label, this slogan reflects the inner voice of every man: when they are young, they yearn to grow up, and after they have grown up, they want their youth back. The label therefore targets young men to grown-ups, singularly reflecting the “Ageless” spirit of the WORKER PLAYGROUND label. A lot of Macao historic elements are injected into the design, including Macao aviation history, the once glorious Jai Alai sport game, and the different living styles and cultures of the northern and southern districts of Macao.

WORKER PLAYGROUND

Brand profile:
WORKER PLAYGROUND is a Macao fashion label born in 2012, mainly designing and making jackets. The label uses the old Macao Workers’ Sportsground (where Grand Lisboa stands now) as inspiration for its name, bearing historical significance for Macao. The label hopes that it will be as popular as Workers’ Stadium, which is in every city in China.
The early label slogan was “Be True to Your Playground”, meaning that everyone has a playground in their own heart. It is hoped that everyone can be loyal to the life they choose, expressing their own style through this label. The latest brand slogan is “For Boys Want to Be Men, For Men Want to Be Boys”. Since this is a men’s wear label, this slogan reflects the inner voice of every man: when they are young, they yearn to grow up, and after they have grown up, they want their youth back. The label therefore targets young men to grown-ups, singularly reflecting the “Ageless” spirit of the WORKER PLAYGROUND label. A lot of Macao historic elements are injected into the design, including Macao aviation history, the once glorious Jai Alai sport game, and the different living styles and cultures of the northern and southern districts of Macao. In 2016, the label became official Macao Grand Prix partner, designed and produced a series of products for the event, including jacket, T-Shirt, leather gloves, travel bag, and outdoor utensils. In 2017, became the official fashion partner for Macao “Hush!” Rock and Roll Music Festival.
