Free Solo

November 22, 2019

Modern menswear luxury brand, OAMC takes us on an adventure with the release of its newest sneaker, the Free Solo.

The name itself makes us reminiscent of all of the infeasibility and achievement of the King of free soloing and office issue 11 star, Alex Honnold. It turns out that OAMC has created a shoe that encompasses this exact dare devil attitude—conquering the unexpected through design and function.

Made in Italy, the sneaker is created from custom elements that feature rubber outer sole and a clean upper in premium leather. Available in off-white, black and ivy, and in both styles of high-top and low-top, the shoe proves to be as versatile and bold as the exact sort activity it was made for—with such a courageous sneaker, the only missing piece is a wearer who can keep up.

The Free Solo sneakers are now available in limited quantities at Dover Street Market, I.T, Antonioli, SSENSE, Tomorrowland and other selected retail stores.

The Others: Matières Fécales Debut FW25 Show

March 10, 2025

It was impossible to keep your eyes off the runway at Matières Fécales' latest show. The debut of their FW25 collection made an impression as models donned Christian Louboutins as part of a stellar collaboration between the two brands. The collection was rooted in fantasies and dreams, encouraging the viewer to find a sense of optimism despite their hardships.

Led by their desire to express themselves freely, this marks their first time manufacturing a collection. Bald and eyebrowless alien-like models graced the runway, providing a peek into a world of fearless existence and gracefully sculpted silhouettes. Freakishly beautiful, the looks allude to a physical manifestation of our true selves which, for many, can be too dangerous to reveal.

View the complete collection below.
