The city is a tough place, relentless in its aggression, challenges, and pace of change. It’s survival of the fittest out there, and if you can’t keep up then you’ve no chance. And when it comes down to the wire, the last layer of protection from the city that you’ll have is what you’ve got on your body. So what’s your armor gonna be?
都会を代表するもの。めまぐるしい変化。変化を取り入れられなければ、都会ではサバイバルできない。この果て、最後に身を守るのが服だったらどんな甲冑を選ぶの?そこでサバイバルモード「On Air」がFinal Home から誕生。
The “On Air” series from Final Home is a functional collection developed so the wearer can adapt to change as quickly as the air does. The pieces come in parts, meant to be put together in a myriad of ways, symbolizing change as much as literally being able to wear it. While “designer activewear” is gaining speed, perhaps the next level will be “survivor activewear”? We modern society city-dwellers will take all the assistance we can get.
“Final Home” is designed by Kosuke Tsumura, a genius in his own right who named his under the concept of “when your house is gone, only the clothes on your back are left to protect you”. Every bit of his collections are stylish yet practical, with built-in “survival-ready” elements Tsumura develops. But while that may conjure up images of Hazmat-ready gear, it’s still just in the name of fashion. Survival of the most stylish, baby.
