shanghai in summer is humid and syrupy. the city moves slower than you’d expect — slower than it should, for somewhere this big, this lit up, this loud, this alive. food on every corner, with a different smell drifting out from each: deep fried, maybe, then spiced, fragrant.
 
in the french concession, the trees do the work of saving you from the heat. people file underneath them in lines, shuffling along like little ducks.
 
at the bund, the skyline is almost too much — colorful and pulsing and full, people everywhere, synapses firing. you get drunk on it, in a way.

“community — that’s the most important thing to me.” sometimes, we keep things to ourselves simply because there’s never quite the moment to share them. shot wearing n°509 brando across amsterdam, four locals finally said precisely what was on their minds.

n°509 brando will be available online and in stores next thursday.

we headed to far rockaway to sit down with the locals — all wearing our new double-faced hat, n°509 brando — and find out: what are you letting go of? for one, it was the career that used to define him. for another, it was giving everyone else his heart before he gave any to himself. for a third, it was her need to get everything perfect. 

n°509 brando arrives next week — online and in stores.

xiao zhao prefers to let things happen naturally. in life, sure, but especially in his practice. the color in his work appears through corrosion and time. water finds its way across steel. there is always a balance, he says. when something is lost, something else arrives.

his studio in shanghai — one floor below where he lives — is full of evidence of this: curved forms, sparks, the smell of metal, an alex katz book on the windowsill, the city just outside.

freedom. guo jiacheng needs it in whatever he does. to create or express himself, to move, too. and it’s that freedom that’s shaped his sense of taste — slowly and deliberately over the years.

we met him at a café he knows well, where the afternoon light filtered in through the window.

dan always finds his way to the water. his boat is out there, on the river deben, and on a good day — after he’s achieved something, done something — he gets to sail before the light goes. a day with three separate parts, he says. that’s a pretty perfect day.

dan wears n°377 clement in midnight and n°506 giorgio in raven.
