this is great. even if it has taken a while it seems like he is successfully realizing his vision rather than churning something out just to cash in on his little bit of hype. a little sportier/streetier than my usual taste, but still, easily one of the most interesting creators out there right now.

and i gotta admit, skull bag is bad ass.

DSM. Shiva scull-bags will be available for sale from 4th of March. I think there are 2 or 3 DSM Exclusives: pinstripe and Prince of Wales. 4 of each.

the price is so crazy.

[Crowzer]

It seems like prices are justified.

nice to get more photos of the collection. The paratrooper jacket is incredible. I love that fused seam technique that he uses and every single part (that I can see) has been extremely well thought out. Down to the matte finish of the buttons, each garment is complex yet cohesive.

Pretty sure I could carry everything I needed to live for a week in the backcountry in that paratrooper jacket. Now if only I had three thousand eight hundred euro...

anyone knows the difference between this skull bag and the previous version?

This one seems to be much more expensive!

Just to be clear, the 'paratrooper' jacket they are referring to here is called the 'Veil' Jacket and is part of the concept narrative collection 'Under the effects of Ethnic Stereotypes' (along with the Stockwell denim jacket, skull racksack & Stockwell jeans).

The Veil Jacket is pictured here over the Stockwell Denim jacket and fully attaches itself to it with an elastic hook type system. The Stockwell Denim acts as the base layer (although the Veil can be worn independently). The 'Veil' interior pockets shown in the Stockwell Denim interior photos also attach and are sold separately.

The new skull bag will be produced in a new fabric (not this one pictured, this is the old style). The price increase is due to necessary cost increases in producing the skulls bags. The initial skull bags ended up being a loss for Aitor, in efforts to keep the cost down.

I can assure you that these prices are not inflated in the slightest and Aitor's team has worked hard to keep the costs as low as possible.

That said, I am very excited for this to arrive in-store

Albert, you really need to get a copy of SZ volume 4. Everything is explained there. Aitor and I really went deep into his design process.

Also, you need to see the Mongolia coat IRL. THAT will blow your mind.
