Footwear: The Generic Man
Yes Footwear is changing! We all love sneakers, but sometimes we have to change it up to some more fashion contemporary “adult” styles. I bring you THE GENERIC MAN, these are so fresh and dope, the simplicity and the usage of quality leathers and suedes. Check out more of the collection on the site.
About: Originally founded as Generic Costume in 1997 in a NYC loft by Kevin Carney. The generic man collection came about in the spring of 2006 as Brandon Day and Kevin Carney began what they called a “case study on adultism”. During this time, they started a journey to define what it means to be an “adult” these days. Through a process of research, experience and discussion “the generic man” lifestyle took shape.
The generic man is created for someone who does not need branding and logos to make them feel confident or stylish. They are secure in themselves, regardless if they’re a CEO or an ad agency intern, there’s no need for other’s approval. They understand the significance of quality construction and clean, simple, refined lines, knowing how to use them to their advantage.
The generic man is confident enough in them self to accept simplicity.
