OAMC designer Luke Meier looks to a past trip to Tanzania and the Maasai people for an inspiring start to spring. The Maasai’s vibrant use of blue and red checks are reinterpreted for a sporty, modern focus. Relaxed shirts, lightweight jackets and contemporary pullovers are dressed in an experimental rift on tradition for standout results.
