In a move equal parts mischievous and meticulously branded, Los Angeles-based streetwear collective Sutra LA has quietly unveiled a new satire-driven capsule line modeled after the notorious sorcerer-villain David Lo Pan and the corporate underworld of the fictional Wing Kong Exchange.

The micro-collection, which appeared online without formal announcement late Tuesday, reimagines Lo Pan’s centuries-old mystique through modern streetwear silhouettes—mixing neon embroidery, occult-coded iconography, and tongue-in-cheek corporate slogans referencing the Wing Kong’s shadowy dealings. Industry watchers note that the drop is the first time a fashion label has leaned so heavily into Big Trouble in Little China’s cult mythology while presenting it as a faux corporate crossover brand.

Alongside the apparel launch, Sutra LA also rolled out a dedicated X (formerly Twitter) account for the fictional Wing Kong Exchange, posting parody “product ads” for items that don’t exist—such as “Cursed Shareholder Rings” and “Eternal Intern Soul Contracts.” Each gag item is paired with replies to trending posts, functioning as a satirical troll-marketing campaign that blurs the line between brand commentary and Lo Pan–styled corporate menace. The account describes itself simply as: “Official business communications from the Wing Kong Exchange. Mortals welcome.”

Early buyers reported that packaging arrived stamped with “Property of Wing Kong Exchange – Unauthorized Mortals Will Be Banished,” while product tags jokingly listed Lo Pan as “Founder, CEO, Eternal Sorcerer.” Though Sutra LA has not formally commented on the line, a spokesperson’s brief message on social media simply read: “The Wing Kong rise again.”

Analysts expect the limited run to sell out quickly as 80s-film fandom, streetwear culture, and satire branding continue to intersect.
