On this episode of the podcast the guys start off by getting right into the creative director musical chairs that seem to be continuing in the fashion world.
Peter Hawkings, who took over at Tom Ford after Tom's departure, is stepping down after just two collections. There's talk of John Galliano leaving Margiela for Fendi, and vacancies remain at Chanel and Givenchy.
The conversation then shifts to VF selling Supreme to Essilor Luxottica for $1.5 billion due to disappointing results, raising questions about whether brands can become too big and if expansion is always beneficial.
The Olympic Games Paris 2024 have officially begun, which means the kits are out too. Kith has released a Team USA basketball capsule with superstar Kevin Durant, and Birkenstock has opened its first Paris store!
