Background
Drawing on the workwear tradition, Rasmus Trøst Simonsen has reused scraps from the production of Viking Life-Saving Equipment and reinterpreted them for the contemporary urban environment with an emphasis on function, ergonomics and aesthetics.
Functional style
The design uses Gore-Tex, Kevlar and Hi-Vis colours, among other elements, to facilitate working, living and surviving in the city and to eliminate daily annoyances such as the extra wear on the inseams of trouser legs for cyclists or how to carry a wallet, smartphone, camera and head phones.
