Kanesa David — July 19, 2022 — Art & Design
Otto Resource ℅ Adam Barnard is a Berlin-based “digital product archive and research facility.” The label has announced a new collaboration with RANRA and RGT Italia for a ‘Two-Piece Uniform’ made from Ventile ripstop and DWR coating. The set is inspired by military and uniform apparel, adopting the aesthetics of the Eisenhower jacket and Otto’s ‘Redefining Archetypes’ manifesto for the coat. The pants opt for a traditional chino-style look, complete with military-style zippers and adjustable straps.
Adam Barnard, Founder of Otto Resource, describes the collaboration as “a well-dyed product with a unique vintage finish, and a full retention of the fabric’s water repellency. [Otto Resource] consider[s] this a near-perfect solution for innovative and functional garments, with the possibility to be used by all interested brands!”
