FITTING EVERYTHING AND ANYWHERE

In 1993, two brothers were looking for a water-resistant, robust material for their bag designs. Inspired by the countless trucks driving down the Zurich transit axis in front of their house, they designed their first messenger bag from truck tarps. The brand Freitag was born, and went on to achieve great success in the following years, expanding from Switzerland throughout Europe and into Asia.

Years later, in 2026, FREITAG introduces yet another bag: the F622 Jack City Bag. Foldable, this bag can be converted into such a small size that you can bring it anywhere. Unfolded, it fits 15 litres and holds your belongings thanks to the light, recyclable nylon fabric. Staying true to the brand’s roots, you can close it with a piece of individual truck tarp, promising extra safety.

For the design, seven local artists worked in close collaboration with each FREITAG store in the different locations. The Jack City Bags of Berlin, Amsterdam, Tokyo, Shanghai, Zurich, and Seoul are exclusively available in the local FREITAG store. Only the Oerlikon design is available online.

THE HARMONY COLLECTION BY UGG

The Californian surf brand introduces its new collection, “The Harmony Collection”. The new designs celebrate the contrast between hard and soft, neutral and warm, creating harmonious styles that capture the essence and feel of UGG.

The collection sits exactly at the intersection of comfort and elevation, where classics meet innovative statements.

For the women’s line, UGG first introduces the “Goldenstar Crackle Glide”, featuring crackled leather that evolves with wear, promising a personal touch. Available in Crackle White, the lightweight outsole provides cushioning, while the adjustable heel strap ensures a custom fit, adapting the shoe to your feet, and not the other way around.

The second model is the “Goldenstar Crackle Clog”, made with a lining from 100% recycled textiles and completed with an anti-odor treatment. Like the first style, this shoe also features an adjustable strap for versatile 2-in-1 styling options, as well as an ultra-lightweight outsole that delivers comfort and support.

CELEBRATING CREATIVITY: MANGO X ECKHAUS LATTA 

Mango’s platform, “Mango Collective”, which collaborates with one designer annually, has just introduced its partner for 2026: Eckhaus Latta. The American brand is known for its use of unconventional materials, bold prints, and a general focus on practical, actually wearable everyday clothing. The two brands joined forces for a capsule collection this summer, skilfully moving between concept, functionality, and urban sensibility.

The collection is designed to encourage personal expression, showcasing how subversive the everyday can be by simply disrupting it through stylistic choices. It convinces with design elements such as denim and bold prints, contrasted by layers of ultra-light pieces, knitwear featuring colour combinations, and prints inspired by the underwater world. Transparent fabrics and minimalist cuts reminiscent of the 1990s create a distinct aesthetic, while accessories complement the organic and asymmetrical shapes that run throughout the entire collection.

Mango Collective is the brand-owned platform celebrating the creativity and innovation of niche designers — and this latest collaboration is set to become a summer staple.

HEADJUMP INTO IBIZA’S NIGHTLIFE
HÏ IBIZA X PALM ANGELS

HÏ IBIZA and Palm Angels partnered up for the second time to spoil fans with their newest capsule collection. The new pieces capture the magnetic pull of the island and, more so, the transcendental energy of its dancefloors.

Both brands share their commitment to culture, community, and creative expression. Those values are reflected in the collection’s statement pieces, defined by a custom-developed “Cloud Wash” tie-dye technique. As their manifesto states, “Some people just know how to fly,” this collection celebrates the fleeting, euphoric moments on the dancefloor that many of us know and desire.

The face of the campaign is French model Clara Berry, who stands out with her distinctive style and contemporary attitude. Alongside her, Pacôme Pegaz also represents the campaign, known for his spectacular death-diving acts. Together, they embody the daring, vibrant, and youthful spirit of this collaboration.

To celebrate the launch, there is a dual-city experience spanning Ibiza and London, with the new collection available at the local HÏ IBIZA store and online. Additionally, a two-week pop-up will take place at London’s flagship FLANNELS store from 28 May onwards.
