As a child, Brice Partouche chose a skateboard over sneakers as a means of getting exercise. Nowadays, at the helm of his brainchild brand Satisfy, he is self-admittedly "addicted, obsessed, and possessed" with running.
Prototyped in Paris and manufactured in Portugal, this performance activewear label sits at the luxury end of the sportswear scale. Here, signature ideas of beauty and function are sketched out and sewn, then paired with progressive material technologies from Switzerland, Japan, Italy, and France.
Packed with attitude, Satisfy’s SS18 collection – “RUN! PUNK! RUN!” – is inspired by The Clash’s legendary frontman Joe Strummer. Said to have run both the London and Paris marathons during the height of his career, this collection is a celebration of running as a form of active rebellion.
1980's style details punctuate this drop of shorts, sweats, tees, and lightweight jackets – with perforated mesh, pastel hues, silks in muted tie-dye and leopard prints all making an appearance. Moth-eaten distressing delivers breathability - a nod to the street with love-worn touches - and bold slogan prints further this brand's rebellious reclamation of running culture.
Find satisfaction in life and become a “RUNNING CULT MEMBER” this season.
Satisfy SS18 is now available at END.
