[RIOT HILL](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/valorant-x-fragment) works in collaboration with Japanese fashion brand TATRAS on a new collection for the Fall/Winter 2020 season. The capsule made its original debut during Paris Fashion Week in the beginning of the year boasting the title 'SO FAR SO GOOD.' The special collection draws design inspiration from modern Japanese architecture as well as Swiss military uniforms.

The blend of cultures and influences are translated by TATRAS' expertise in [experimenting with materials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultra-violet-collection). The functional apparel perfectly border the line of industrial and utilitarian design with dramatic accents. This includes the oversized pockets, the extended straps, asymmetric zippers, and heavyweight hardware accents. Rounding out the rest of the collection is the [impressive selection of outerwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/descente-allterrain-fw25).
