A new masculine signature from Bracken
In summer 2026, Molly Bracken will present Bracken, a men’s shoe line for the first time. Designed by CEO Julian Sidonio, the collection reflects his dynamic lifestyle: free, agile and always on the move.
Inspired by movement and the sea
As a motorsport, boating and travel enthusiast, Julian Sidonio follows an international rhythm. His goal: light, elegant and comfortable shoes that are easy to put on and take off. This is how Bra was created – a reduced, versatile line for everyday life, leisure and travel, in which style and function naturally merge.
Nautical spirit meets modern function
The collection is inspired by life on the water and outdoor activities. The Bracken Navigator and Classic Bracken models reinterpret the slip-on – versatile in use, from the deck to the city.
The Navigator was created in the course of the restoration of a Riva 25 Fisherman (1970) by Julian Sidonio and consistently embodies the nautical lifestyle: with a specially developed, deck-friendly sole, easy handling and high functionality.
The collection is complemented by the Classic Bracken made of vegan suede – an elegant all-rounder for everyday and evening wear. Both models are light, comfortable, machine washable, equipped with removable insoles and floatable.
Strong identity
An anchor logo on the outsole – inspired by Sidonio’s tattoo – symbolizes the connection to the sea and shapes the brand identity right down to the packaging.
“Bracken Footwear was born out of my need for shoes that fit my lifestyle: easy to wear, elegant enough for evening wear and functional for life on the water,” explains the founder.
Comfort through technical precision
Two years of research and development go into every detail:
- Exclusive, flexible and ultralight sole with optimal cushioning
- Special construction without rigid elements for natural mobility
- Breathable cotton canvas lining, can also be worn barefoot
Two styles, versatile areas of application
Navigator – sporty and modern, with 3D mesh, light and easy to care for (machine washable).
Classic Bracken – urban and elegant, with a velor look and timeless appeal.
Both models feature distinctive branding details and are available in a wide, versatile color range.
More than a shoe – an attitude to life
Bracken represents a modern lifestyle between the coast, sport, travel and everyday urban life. Clear lines, natural colors and lightness characterize the designs – functional, stylish and versatile.
French casual chic for men
With Bracken, Molly Bracken transfers his signature to menswear: high-quality materials, timeless colors and a clear, sophisticated design language. For men who value style, comfort and uncomplicated elegance.
A promise
“For me, true elegance is that which follows movement. Bracken is a shoe that keeps up with your rhythm and supports you to go further.” —Julian Sidonio, CEO of MOLLY BRACKEN
