SCAROSSO X NICK WOOSTER Renowned fashion connoisseur and true style icon Nick Wooster is known for his inimitable street styles and uber-cool outfit inspiration. Italian footwear specialist Scarosso decided to turn this talent to its advantage and contacted the US designer via direct message on Instagram to suggest a collaboration. Luckily Nick Wooster rose to the occasion. The result: a Chelsea boot capsule collection in a variety of colours and patterns (including leopard print!). As he revealed to our sister magazine TM TextilMitteilungen: “In the past few years we have found ourselves in a comfort cycle: […] the world is ready and eager for something new. Boots are the perfect way to fill the gap between sneakers and shoes with leather soles.” How right he is!

SAUCONY Everything used to be better in the old days? A glance at Saucony’s ‘Shadow 6000’, a genuine original from the 90s, suggests that this claim could actually be true. To celebrate the 30th birthday of this special model this year, the American sneaker brand is throwing a little ‘Shadow 6000’ party with cool styles. This also includes the ‘Food Fight’ drop with two different and very colourful patchwork uppers. The colours are inspired by a wild food fight with pizza, burgers, avocado toast, candy floss and fruit. A clash with a twist! Added highlights that aren’t visible to the eye include extra comfort and cushioning provided by the improved PWRRUN midsole.

KANGAROOS We love comebacks! Which is why we’re jumping for joy that Kangaroos are bringing its popular classic ‘Coil R1 OG Pop’ back onto the market in its original form this autumn – optimum cushioning properties (thanks to the use of Dynacoil) and a cool design combo of suede, mesh and reflective PU included. The colourway of our Most Wanted piece is perfect for any season too: vibrant blue and orange along with a soft flamingo tone add colourful highlights to the black and grey, making a cool change from the omnipresent all-white sneaker trend. A combo that isn’t just functional both in winter and summer, but also extremely easy on the eye.

MARC O’POLO Slouchy. Crossbody. Italian suede – basically, this bag ticks all the boxes. ‘Grete’ is not a fast-fashion piece, but a timeless classic that outlasts trends and moods and has the potential to become a long-time favourite. With a bit of imagination, its curved shape and powdery stone grey look like an elegant crescent moon, while the knotted handle and shoulder strap make this Most Wanted piece from the spring/summer 2022 season the perfect everyday accessory.

COTTON CANDY Good vibes only – that’s the message of our Most Wanted piece ‘Rina’! Its cheerful neon orange and mood-boosting message in the form of a smiley are enough to bring us out of our grey and gloomy comfort zone, catapulting us out of this winter’s tedious pandemic situation and into brighter fashion times ahead. And we’re more than ready for more colour in our lives! Thanks to its oversized silhouette, this sweater is ideal for cosy stay-at-home moments, but can also be incorporated into cool street style looks. Time to turn that frown upside-down!

LØCI In search of the only sneaker that leaves a good footprint? It’s hard to believe, but London-based shoe label Løci was only just established this April by Emmanuel Eribo and Philippe Homsy – with the vision of producing premium-quality vegan shoes in limited editions. On demand, so to speak. As well as producing stylish sneakers like this ‘Classic Low Top’, they are also committed to the protection of marine life by making their vegan shoes from fully recycled ocean plastic from the Mediterranean and Africa’s Atlantic coast. Plus, 10 percent of the profits from every pair sold are donated to the conservation of marine protected areas and the protection of endangered underwater species.
