The inspiration of
urban Sailors 1 ) The Red and Green The colour red and the colour green. The core of who we are. The essence of our icon, our history, our future, and the way we approach things. Two sides of one entity – one looking out, and one looking towards home. Knowing where we come from, but never doubting where we are going. Our two colours, the colours of our icon, are the line we walk. They are our path, and we will always stay loyal to this. The two colours are included in every collection along with our time-tested elements of style: cable knits, stripes, maritime prints, as well as colours associated with life around the harbour: navy blue, foam white, and our own red and green colours. Our roots are visible in every style: red or green piping, seams and stitching; our icon embroidered on a sleeve; little hints that the individual item, no matter how basic, is part of a bigger story.
2 ) The maritime icons For every collection, we design icon items. These items are interpretations of the traditional navy pea coat and the classic cable knit. These two items have been staples of any sailor’s wardrobe for centuries, and whereas the woollen pea coat provided protection against harsh Scandinavian weather, the elaborate, knitted patterns of the cable knit provided information about the home of the sailor. The navy pea coat pointed towards unknown shores, while the cable knit told of familiar waters. This duality is part of everything we do; it is embedded in our icon, as it has been since we began.
3 ) The commercial In a world of ever-changing inspiration and trends, we still have our eyes firmly fixed on the classic and commercial items. Although we work with trends, it is also important to us to work with basics and everlasting items which still have references to our maritime roots. Therefore the collection spans current trend items interpreted and designed within the REDGREEN context as well as commercial, basic styles that are ready to become wardrobe staples. These three anchors are what makes the REDGREEN SS ’14 collection.
