Each Specimen Zip is hand-worked in the studio using upcycled overlays, archival designs, and modern distressing. The 2-way YKK hardware allows for architectural styling - zip from the bottom to create a flared, editorial silhouette or keep it closed for a heavy, armored feel.

Variance: Each piece is individually distressed and hand-altered with upcycled textiles and archival remnants that would otherwise be landfill-bound. While the structural blueprint remains the same, the specific additions, distress patterns, and textile placements will vary from the imagery. You are purchasing a 1-of-1 artifact, unique to your collection.
