What began as a denim clothing label created by a ragtag artists' collective in Paris has now morphed into a full-fledged clothing and accessories brand for men and women. Surface to Air exudes a confident, edgy cool that’s earned it the adoration of downtown tastemakers from New York to Copenhagen. Need proof? Look no further than their buzzed-about design collaborations with ultra-hip musicians like Justice, Kim Gordon and Kings of Leon. For the adventurous, Surface to Air offers the Louma—a suede, cut-out platform pump, anchored on a thick, triangular block heel, that will perfectly Mod-ify any outfit. But if it’s classic comfort you’re after, don’t fret: the company’s sneakers, boots and lace-ups for men and women cover the full range of low-maintenance styles, from cowboy boot to Beatle boot to oxfords. Denim is still a surefire staple, but it’s Surface to Air’s now-iconic buckle wedges and slim leather bombers that make its offerings such a breath of fresh… well, you know.
