Prada Re-Cashmere & Re-Wool: Circularity Meets Natural Fiber
Prada’s circular push moves from nylon to natural fiber. After Re-Nylon, the house now turns its own leftovers into yarn: spinning residues, offcuts and cutting-room remainders from across the Group are sorted by color, which makes re-dyeing unnecessary, then carded and spun anew. Re-Cashmere yields men’s and women’s sweaters in 100% recycled cashmere, while Re-Wool, a blend of 50% RWS-certified virgin wool with recycled wool and cashmere, becomes trousers, jackets, skirts and dresses for women. Everything is produced in Tuscany and Umbria, and each piece carries an NFC tag linking to a blockchain-secured Digital Certificate of Authenticity. Because output depends on the material at hand, quantities stay limited and colors may not return the next season.
Samsøe Samsøe x END. : A Wardrobe Worth Sharing

Classic Samsøe Samsøe signatures are reworked through updated proportions and silhouettes in knit, denim and leather, set in a dark palette of monochromes, olive and plum. Photographed by Luca Strano, the campaign makes the concept literal: two people, one in Copenhagen and one in London, wear and pass on every look.

151.83 km/h: Diego Poncelet Becomes the Fastest Skateboarder on Record
Prada Linea Rossa and Red Bull have backed Diego Poncelet’s world record attempt, and it paid off. On a closed stretch of Route des Éboulements in Québec’s Charlevoix region, the two-time downhill world champion hit 151.83 km/h, a new benchmark for the sport. The Spaniard waited years for the right mix of wind, temperature and road conditions. He edged past the old record on his first test day, then returned five days later and settled the matter in one decisive run. Behind it lay years of work with engineers and performance specialists on aerodynamics, conditioning and control at extreme speed. Prada Linea Rossa contributed bespoke handcrafted shoes, with a sticky rubber compound and herringbone traction pattern for board contact, plus custom gloves built for protection, comfort and grip.
