Forces oblivious to our attention such as fear, anger, and resentment often govern ourselves. Socrates implored others to examine one’s self to highlight what we really desire, fear, and value.
We decided to start our first collection with the declaration of Know Thyself as it is the first step to wisdom and bettering ourselves and thereby others.
One’s self-examination can better understand their psychology, fight game, and style.
The Know Thyself collection reflects the interconnectedness of art, philosophy, and sport. In this podcast series, each episode relates to an article of clothing from the collection and the inspiration of its design.
