Soulland: Scandinavian Craftsmanship at Copenhagen Fashion Week

Born 1985, Silas Adler founded Soulland in 2002 as a t-shirt printing company, which has emerged as a recognized brand around the world.

Now as one of the main driver’s of Denmark’s menswear renaissance, Soulland is firmly rooted in the traditional craftsmanship of Scandinavia.

In 2008, Silas Adler was nominated as the best Danish up-and-coming designer by Danish Fashion Awards.

Last week at Copenhagen Fashion Week, Soulland presented the 2011 spring/summer collection, which was characterized by attention to detail, a modern twist on traditional menswear, and a combination of the classic fedora with the baseball cap.

Soulland & the Adler Fedora Hat

With roots in both Sweden and Tanzania, 23-year-old Silas Adler was born in Denmark, having spent much of his childhood in rural Jutland, the main part of the country.

Prior to moving to Copenhagen as a teen, Silas lived several years in Gothenburg, Sweden.

At the age of 17, Silas founded the menswear label Soulland as an excuse not to go to school!

Now the best up-and-coming Danish designer, Silas combines the country lifestyle of Jutland with the urban trends of Gothenburg and Copenhagen.

The Adler fedora hat is a hybrid between a baseball cap and the classic fedora that is constructed using artisan millinery techniques.

Dedicated to Scandinavia, VMAN has launched a giveaway of two Adler Fedora Hats at 2pm today!
