#EDIT009
A Study in Process + Motion
#EDIT009 marks our first artist collaboration in over a year. But our alignment - and history - with the artist Adam Ball runs much deeper.
Adam's artistic practice is defined by process. Layered, iterative and deliberately slow. A single piece can take weeks or even months to finish, and his output is naturally limited as a result.
The same thinking underpins everything we do.
No excess. No shortcuts. Only release what's worth making.
The piece he has created for #EDIT009 draws on energy patterns found in nature - organic flows, dynamic forms - designed to echo the circular rhythm of riding.
From canvas to fabric, we've worked closely with Adam and our technical partners to translate his work across the multiple technical fabrics that make up each garment in the range.
#EDIT009 preorders open at midday (BST) Friday May 1 for 10 days only. Strictly limited to 350 pieces.
“The body doesn't just wear the collection, it activates it. The movement of the fabric - the way it flows, the changing light - all becomes part of the artwork." - Adam Ball
ABOUT ADAM BALL
