    2026 and the rise of Sailingcore

Transcript

Talk about the rise of Sailing Corps as a trend in tier. From OG Ralph campaigns to Yachty's goaded Nautica campaign from over a decade ago. Sailing as a creative reference has come and gone over the years, but I'm seeing a fresh resurgence, and I wanna show you a few examples of this at play. We have to start with my friend Davide of GI Cashmere, who I affectionately call the young Brunello Cuccinelli. A few months ago, he launched a capsule collection and sub label within his brand called Vela, which is inspired by all things nautical. Next, we have Parisian based Brut Archives who took a collection of headstock nautical flags and turned them into worse jackets. Over in Cornwall, England, we have Atlantic Coastal Supplies who is using their collections to romanticize life on the wharf. From these little scenes and vignettes on the coast of England to their newly iconic colorful knitwear collection. The playfulness and nostalgia to the rank, you just can't escape it. Creative in general is just really well done. ALD just put this sailing patch in their spring collection. Better Island just launched their own kids collection inspired by sailing. Good, we all know about the Sperry topsider, but if there was a modern shoe that could easily double as a lifestyle sneaker, the stuff that equipment De V is doing right now is next level, especially this chocolate brown suede. Look, it's one thing to talk about creative references and the aesthetic of sailing showing up on the brand side, but there's also the recreational and competitive side to sailing as a sport that's just blowing up right now. Jackman and Ryan Reynolds recently bought this Australian sailing team. To the countless friends I have in my DMs texting me, they just got their sailing license. The reality is that sailing is one of those pastimes and hobbies on the rise that's niche enough, but also casting a wide enough better. And I think we're gonna see more of it on the creative and brand
