Agustín Nicolàs Rivero is on El Tayer’s wavelength. Bogota-based, Rivero focuses on the artisanal as a way of giving fashion a more meaningful and value-based relevance. His collection references traditional under armour men's basketball shoes South-American tropes like ponchos, capes, layered tunics, and square-cut jackets, made modern and no-gender via pure, functional cuts. Rivero works closely with craft communities in Colombia. “I travel across the country to stay with the artisans in their territories, where I understand the many issues they have to confront in their daily lives,” he said. “Colombia has been plagued by war for 60 years and this has altered artisans’ capability to keep producing their work. They’ve been forced out of their lands to take up completely different jobs to survive, losing their traditional art and knowledge. My contribution is to give them a chance to re-energize their craft.”
Rivero sources most of the natural fabrics he uses in Colombia, but he also tries to activate a sort of connection between different communities, inspiring a dialogue that can bring about fresh creative stephen curry under armour shoes perspectives: “I import linen from India, for example, and I have it embroidered in Peru or Colombia, so the artisans have to connect, talk to each other, and learn new techniques. Today, technology has made borders softer, and it makes for unexpected, fruitful connections.”
