The main theme of the collection is the concept of reconstruction, which is referenced in the capsule's name as well. It shines a spotlight on the brand's expertise of tailoring, deconstructing, and then recreating the looks from a utilitarian perspective. One of the standout designs is the aforementioned harness that is made from ripstop nylon and belt buckles.
