Where Future and Present Collide: Youth Culture’s Obsession with C.P Company
Youth culture tends to gravitate towards authenticity and innovation, the same foundation for Massimo Osti's C.P Company. Inspired by military grade functionality, along with their technically innovative use of fabrics based around their signature garment dyeing techniques, C.P Company has pioneered casual sportswear elevating it to high fashion street style for more than 50 years.
There have been countless versions of this beloved design as it found its way from the Italian racing elite to the streets. It became one of Osti’s most timeless designs, aesthetically bold and functional; the conscious marriage of form and function were appealing to many style and substance-conscious subcultures. Leading to C.P Company being adopted and championed by multiple, diverse communities; from skaters to ravers, from mountain climbers to vintage clothing collectors and more.
