Purpose

SS23

Function need not be odds with form: Japan’s rich design history includes an enduring quest for harmony between practicality and aesthetics. EDWIN’s Spring/Summer 2023 Collection welcomes the marriage of both.

Back again for the new season, 35mm shooter, Charlie Ballett aka @BaggyBoyFilm took to the streets of Manchester to rediscover some of its hidden gems. Taking a stroll and capturing the diverse landscapes from canals to housing estates and warehouses, the ever-changing cityscape fueled Charlie's creativity, resulting in a newfound appreciation for Manchester's charm and the perfect backdrop for the collection.

Highlighting the crisp, clean beauty of hyper-functionality, every piece serves its wearer. Comprised of roomy, straight-cut items fit with utilitarian pockets and panels, each garment has been created to meet the needs of everyday life – right down to the breathable, resilient materiality. Featuring versatile outerwear, pants, and shorts, this is a coordinated uniform for a life with purpose.

AVAILABLE NOW AT EDWIN STORES, SELECTED EUROPEAN STOCKISTS AND ONLINE.
