The Fall/Winter '25 collection blended archival references, experimental techniques, and sportswear details, highlighting the brand's research-driven approach to fashion. Post Archive Faction's collection introduced new ideas about shape and movement which included cargo-style outerwear, soft puffer pieces, uneven cuts and some of the the seams of the puffers coat zigzagged. The designs combined technical details with a relaxed, effortless feel, resulting in pieces that are both practical and simple. Sleek, single-color outfits offered a subtle, minimalist take on classic menswear. Fine wool, light knits, and reflective silk in cool neutral tones were layered with care.
The brand's footwear collection, includes a new On Running sneaker collaboration. A few Cloudmonster and Cloudventure Peak models were on display, featuring their niche lace systems and colors like black and teal-blue. They also revealed a Clarks Wallabee collaboration which comes in a tonal grey colorway and retains its classic smooth look, until you reach the sole, which is updated with a new chunky design.
In the final look, the last sleeping model rubs his weary eyes and stands, revealing that what had appeared to be a feather duvet is actually a dress trailing behind him down the runway, highlighting the collection's experimental and nuanced avant-gardism style.
