The “Cross Country” collection is inspired, among other things, by the Ivy League style of US universities, climbing gear and workwear. This inspiration can be found in various menswear pieces such as classic college jackets, workwear looks, denim ensembles, biker jackets and relaxed t-shirts. The clothing is designed to enable wearers to transcend conventional notions of athletic, luxury and streetwear, according to the release.
