BRITPOP MEMORABILIA
WASTED x CLARKS ORIGINALS
We teamed up with Clarks Originals on a reworked Wallabee built around one era in particular: Britpop.
In the mid-to-late ’90s, the Wallabee was everywhere. Pubs. Indie venues. Football terraces. Backstage rooms. And the streets in between.
It was never designed for any of it. It got there anyway.
Britpop was never just about the music. The guitars came with haircuts, the haircuts came with jackets, the jackets came with shoes. Tastes, habits, references and objects collided until they became the visual language of a generation.
People are still borrowing that language today.
Rather than recreate the era, Wasted Paris looks back at it through what it left behind: memorabilia.
A badge pinned to a jacket. A charm hanging from a keyring. A souvenir kept long after the night it came from.
These are small, personal objects, collected over time, and each one carries a trace of a place, a moment or a memory.
Those traces run through the whole release : the imagery, ephemera and everyday details that surrounded the era are taken apart and reworked across the Wallabee.
Nothing's too polished, nothing's too precious. Just fragments of a moment, collected and reworked into a unique Wallabee.
Fragments of an era. Worn again.
