Fly Geenius has debuted a new range for Vanson Leathers that also taps Aleali May. Davon Bean, founder of Fly Geenius, and May have a longstanding relationship that dates back to when the creative director recruited her for the brand's first collaboration with a female designer. The capsule emphasizes May’s uniquely creative style and design ethos, as her style is typically regarded as a fusion of high fashion and streetwear.
The collection includes bespoke leather jackets, vests, and accessories that incorporate patches, iconography, and bold colors in their design.
“When I became the creative director for Vanson Leathers streetwear division, one of my goals was to shine light on female bike riders, and women in fashion,” Bean shared in a press release. “The first person I thought of was Aleali May. She is an inspiration for many of her generation; a charismatic female powerhouse, full of creativity, and innovation.”
