The brands use colors inspired by the Icelandic, mountainous terrain as their color palette as well as a mix of Japanese and Icelandic volcanoes as integral patterns and names throughout the collection.
FACETASM designer Hiromichi says "Iceland as a country has a beauty to it that I always longed to visit someday.
It has a sense of affinity with Japan, the country where I am living. So it’s been interesting to look into the similarities. Through this collaboration with 66°North, I feel it can fully express the value of both FACETASM and 66°North, both the happiness and warmth that both of these brands hold.
