Fashion / IncomingGetting inked with O.X.S’s new capsule collectionWhat happens when the Italian shoe company teams up with world-record breaking tattooist?ShareLink copied ✔️January 16, 2015FashionIncomingText Georgina Evans Back in the 90s, tattoo culture was more about hiding new ink from the boss than showing it off. Things have changed somewhat for this generation – knuckle art? Rihanna-like breast placement? Crowdsourcing money to cover your body in strangers’ names? Bring it on. Creating a hybrid of the two eras, Italian brand, O.X.S have just launched their new capsule collection, featuring an updated Frank boot, a radical reworking on the original 1994 style. Revealed for the first time at fashion tradeshow Pitti Uomo, the shoe is designed in collaboration with award-winning tattoo artist, Alle Tattoo – record holder for the longest non-stop tattoo session, most tattoos performed in 12 hours and first man to practice a tattoo at high altitude. The classic workboot is emblazoned with his iconic old school style symbols – daggers, anchors, diamonds and roses all feature heavily. With these new and improved Franks, O.X.S have created the ideal accessory for both the 90s nostalgic and the futuristic fanatic – and a non-permanent way to indulge in the some of the world’s best body art.
