The Only Problem With PAF x Satisfy Is That There Isn't More
The worst thing about POST ARCHIVE FACTION (PAF) and Satisfy’s debut collaboration is that there isn’t more of it.
On one side, you have an LVMH prize-nominated Korean brand known for its experimental takes on technical fashion design, while on the other you have an independent running label crafting cutting-edge running gear with a countercultural savoir-faire.
It’s a brilliant combination of two minds at the forefront of the ever-evolving gray area between fashion and technical clothing. And yet, all they've cooked up is one T-shirt.
It is a very handsome T-shirt, though.
Launching exclusively at the POST ARCHIVE FACTION Seoul store on February 8 is a gray co-branded long-sleeve. On the front, it features white dots swirling around in the shape a tie-dye print often takes.
The T-shirt is crafted from AuraLite, a knitted technical Japanese fabric developed by Satisfy. Fast drying, lightweight, and featuring four-way stretch, it’s one of the many advanced technologies the American running brand has developed (some of which, are even being copied by sportswear giants).
This is the first of many collaborations that POST ARCHIVE FACTION has in the pipeline. Revealed at the brand’s Fall/Winter 2025 showcase in Paris, there is also more running gear with On in the works and an upgraded pair of Clarks Wallabees.
This collaboration might be light on product options, but there is lots more still to come from PAF.
