ONE STEP FORWARD, NO STEPS BACK

Evolution can only drive the future when backed by the past, learning from what came before in the pursuit of shaping what comes next. The embodiment of this notion comes in the form of Overtime Generation, EA7 Emporio Armani’s latest capsule, which now finds itself adorning US-based creative Jimetrious. 

Arriving in the form of the OTG Black & White and OTG Pride, EA7 Emporio Armani has imbued their own iconic heritage sneakers with contemporary perspectives. The collection is a magnification on the endurance and energy of today's wearers, a generation that requires multifaceted outfits ready for whatever the day brings. 

Sophisticated updates on heritage styles, these hybrid sneakers were constructed to be wearable for any time of the day, notably versatile in their styling possibilities. With their low profile silhouette, neutral colour palettes and layered technical fabric construction, the OTG sneakers offer today's generation fluidity in the transition from casual to refined settings. 

Shot by Alfie Whiteman, the OTGs outfit Jimetrious amongst a selection of pieces including Kiko Kostadinov, Balenciaga, Stone Island, and Wales Bonner, depicting the style's versatility across menswear styling. For a designer like Jimetrious, whose custom pieces often incorporate earthly tones and distressed affects, this dockyard's the perfect playground to show off the collection.
