Who founded PLACES+FACES

The brand's About page dates PLACES+FACES to 2013. It also describes Ciesay spending a summer in New York City while Soulz was in London. The page names only Ciesay and Soulz, and does not name a headquarters city.

We found no source that states who owns the company, or any investors or parent company.

What PLACES+FACES makes

Complex described the brand's February 2021 drop as including a P+F Parka Jacket, a bucket hat, a Logo Knitted Sweater and its trademark Caution Hoodie. Hypebae reported that the drop was priced from £45 to £165 and due on the brand's web store on 5 February at 7 p.m. GMT.

The brand's store, checked in October 2026, lists tees, baby tees, jerseys, skirts, bags, socks, underwear, magazines, a poster, a rug and a cushion, with a navigation that includes a 13 Bloody Years section, womenswear and an Arsenal x P+F link.

Collaborations and the ten-year pop-up

Highsnobiety said PLACES+FACES does not do collaborations often and is selective about whom it picks. In its Rizla example, the founders had made their own bootleg Rizla merchandise, because Rizla's logo is also a plus sign, before Rizla reached out.

Highsnobiety's Sam Cole covered a ten-year anniversary pop-up in East London on a Saturday, 17 June, with Corteiz, A COLD WALL, Daily Paper and Slawn among the brands involved. The article does not state the year.

Where to buy PLACES+FACES and what it costs

The brand sells through its own web store, which Hypebae said would carry the February 2021 drop. We did not confirm any stockists.

The store showed no sale or release dates, so the prices below were checked in October 2026 and may change. A tee was £30, an OG reflective hoodie £50, and PLACES+FACES: The Book £60. Several items were on sale: the Emblem zip hoodie in navy at a sale price of £50 against a regular £110, the Mac jacket at a sale price of £70 against £180, and the technical track pants at a sale price of £50 against £115.
