On the Road With Medea

April 27, 2023

Founded by Italian twins Giulia and Camilla Venturini, Medea is best known for its bags. With a SS23 collection recently shot by Jason Nocito, the label has certainly made a name for itself.

But, their latest campaign has the brand venturing out into new, shadier territories. Dropping right before the start of longer, summer days, Medea’s new Smack Sunglasses ensure a “cool girl” season.

Shot by Kristie Muller, the campaign is charming and down to earth. We might as well have been together on a family roadtrip, snapping photos with a disposable camera. Whether it's a moment between sisters in the car, or a pit stop for coffee with a cousin's new beau, there's a pair of shades for every situation and every individual.

Manufactured in Italy and shot in Toronto, the campaign transcends location and invites viewers into Medea's world — one that orbits Smack Sunglasses.

Carhartt WIP and Salomon Reunite

December 18, 2025

For their second collaboration, Carhartt WIP and Salomon expand further on the concept of durability, functionality and an uncompromising commitment to performance. Carhartt WIP, known for its contemporary reinterpretation of hardwearing gear, has revised a key Salomon silhouette with detail-driven design. The X-ALP Carhartt WIP is made to meet any environmental demands, with the shoe incorporating robust grainy leather and suede overlays highlighted with Carhartt WIP’s signature camouflage.

The campaign unfolds in a remote outpost plagued by electromagnetic anomalies and warped gravitational pulls. As a team of researchers work to uncover the truth, a sinister presence begins to surface – a creature hidden from perception, save for a set of writhing, thread-like tendrils, searching for something it once lost but that it still endures.

Staying Warm with Stone Island

December 15, 2025

Founded in 1982, the Italian brand has been pushing fabric technology and experimentation with focus on functionality and utilitarianism. For over four decades, Stone Island has continued to both celebrate the brand’s heritage, while also designing new products driven with purpose.

Champion of the World Oleksandr Usyk, Stone Island’s Client Advisor Manager Nasser Ssekandi, and Artist Earl all feature in the latest campaign. With Nasser Ssekandi, wearing the brand's iconic thermosensitive jacket, with two-layer thermo-sensitive fabric. Oleksandr Usyk is wearing the Ripstop Prismatico, a hooded jacket covered with a laminated, shiny and fine-grained effect, drawing inspiration from Stone Island's classic fabric treatment. Artist Earl wears a knit zip-up jumper with a black sublimatic print.
