IT’S ALWAYS SUMMER.
IT’S ALWAYS SUMMER.
“THE BRAVADO OF YOUTH“ is a collection is primarily about at type of man thats doesn’t exist anymore. Based on characters such as Gunter Sachs and Alain Delon, which were the last of there kind. The ones thats where bursting with life and living it to the fullest. More than anything I tried to capture a feeling of a moment that’s has long past and forgotten if you didn’t realise it was there all along. And for the ones that didn’t know it was there all we are left do is dream about it.
Strolling through a small fishing village somewhere in the Mediterranean letting the summer breeze dance with the sunset, and without a care in the world you asking a stranger to dance at the port where fishermen are returning with todays catch. Music is playing from distant radio as you walk back to your convertible, ajust the mirror and take off into the night.
In the long run the collection is about someone who’s hungry for life.
This jacket is our homage to time and transformation - a study in how beautifully aged materials can be reborn with purpose. We sought out true vintage military duffle bags from the 1960s, each marked by patina, wear, and the quiet dignity of a life well-travelled.
No single bag was ever enough to craft one jacket,so we combined three — each with its own tone, texture, and tale. One formed the body and collar, another the sleeves, and together they found balance in their differences.
Every piece was carefully repaired by hand, the mended seams left visible as a nod to honesty and process. Inside, a soft band of pink silk runs along the lining - a gentle contrast to the rugged exterior,and a reminder that strength and delicacy can coexist.
This vest carries a story as raw as the fabric itself. It was bought straight off the back of a construction worker, who was climbing down the scaffolding outside our house one afternoon. I was just leaving when I saw him — his vest covered in dust and sunlight — and something about it felt real. I made a quick U-turn, caught up to him by his truck, and somehow convinced him to sell it to me. What drew us to this piece was its honesty.
I t had been lived in, worked in, earned — every mark telling its own tale. The distressing on the front wasn’t designed; it was experienced. It fit perfectly with the spirit of our collection — a story of youth, rebellion, and movement. You can almost imagine a restless soul wearing it, Jumping fences, catching on the same edge every time — each scrape adding another layer of to the story.
