The capsule is made up of new metallic looks that take on the form of reflective shimmer across its Varia and Chroma materials. This pushes boundaries on texture and light refraction, which is able to be used in corporate environments, retail spaces, and more. The collection is inspired by the metallic spectrum and highlights the natural beauty of light that is shown through reflective and colorful features. The Flare in Varia is designed in three colors of metallic scattered flakes such as Brass Lioness, Copper Saddle, and Silver Thunder. The Flare in Chroma comes in two colorways of Copper Blcakout and Silver Avalanche.
