Martine Rose, the newly-named guest creative director of Clarks, unveiled her first collaboration with the British shoe manufacturer, as well as new colorways of the Nike Shox MR4 sneakers.
Finally, Next In Fashion runner-up Daniel W. Fletcher revealed an expansive collection with Savil Row’s high-end fashion label and tailor Huntsman.

Date: Spring 2024
Product: Custom Half Jacket 2.0 sunglasses, Spring 2024
Social context: Saul Nash has 25,100 followers on Instagram, whereas Oakley has 2.6 million.
Verdict: As a mainstream fashion brand, Oakley is able to target niche audiences through collaborations, from connecting with skaters via Palace, to reaching the high-fashion crowd with this upcoming Spring 2024 Saul Nash release.
Both brands share a devotion to stylish activewear. The partnership offers exposure and design validity in new product category for Saul Nash, and allows Oakley to showcase its iconic Half Jacket in return.
Martine Rose x Nike

Date: Spring 2024
Product: Nike Shox MR4 sneakers
Social context: Martine Rose received 2,492 likes on the first post revealing its Spring 2024 collection, which is at the upper end of the brand’s engagement level; the account has 291,000 followers.
Verdict: Our newsletter is forever praising long-term footwear partnerships, and Martine Rose x Nike is a powerful case in point. The British designer has become synonymous with her unusual heeled Nike Shox MR4, so another release makes sense. Rose has also been named Clarks’ first guest creative director, which is likely to benefit sales of the latest Shox MR4.
Huntsman x Daniel Fletcher

Verdict: The collection is a British marriage of fine craft, design, heritage, and culture.
The collaboration allows Huntsman to reach younger, fashion-forward clients who enjoy contemporary luxury. Meanwhile, it provides Daniel Fletcher with access to older luxury consumers around the world who are loyal to Huntsman.
