áfram með smjörið (on with the butter) hoodie
katla is a sustainable and fully traceable fashion brand routed in iceland and manufactured in the united states, using organic and mindful materials.
in collaboration with katla, ceft and company designed a limited edition launch hoodie produced in limited numbers. only 100 original units were produced in the first run.
áfram með smjörið (on with the butter)
the idea for the hoodie came from katla’s icelandic heritage and its action oriented roots. researching icelandic proverbs, ceft and company came upon a well known icelandic saying: áfram með smjörið or on with the butter, which expresses an urgency to “get on with the work” or “to get things done”. a rather apt key messaging piece in the launch of this ethical brand.
# KF 052
in addition to the graphic hoodie design, two patches were designed originally for the LE hoodie, and later used across several garments. printed on unbleached cotton and proudly top-stitched to the left sleeve of this hoodie. one patch stating the katla force emblem and specific tracking number (KF052) assigned to each individual garment along with the fire/ice inspired logomark designed by the agency, and the other patch a QR code. the QR code takes the user to a webpage where the sourcing of the material and the ethical manufacturing of that specific garment can be tracked.
