The Story
A part of our spring 2021 collection, War Star is named after the quarter race horse - War Star, who took 5th place in the 1917 Kentucky Derby. When drawing inspiration for this collection, co-founder Ben Ross was inspired by spring and summer events in which we gather and celebrate together - particularly horse races. Each style in this collection is named after a race horse whose name isn’t well known in hopes that their legacy will live on. War Star, in particular, got its name from its ability to outrace other horses by a quarter of a mile.
