I WEAR THE SAME OUTFIT EVERYDAY
“I Wear the Same Outfit Every Day” by Shai Datauker, a conceptual and visual artist located in Amsterdam.
In this active research, which is now in its sixth year, Shai takes a stand against the fast fashion and seasonal clothing industries by selecting and wearing a single outfit throughout the entire year.
Feeling disillusioned by the fashion industry and the influence of societal expectations on his well-being, Shai consciously chose to prioritise sustainable, high-quality, and timeless apparel and footwear.
After collaborating with various brands in recent years, Shai reached out to NPS Shoes to propose a partnership with our brand Solovair, and naturally, we eagerly embraced the chance.
Over the past years, he has showcased a range of clothing options, from sneakers honouring his former teacher to a full year in tech gear, and most recently, he wore a formal suit.
Starting in September 2024, he will be trading in his formal attire for a laid-back outfit made from Kurabo Recycle Red Selvage Denim by Japanese brand EDWIN along with a Romain Perez leather belt featuring a ‘PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH’ buckle design.
Complementing this look will be our Solovair Classic Collection Gaucho Crazy Horse Dealer Boots and Gaucho Crazy Horse Tassel Loafers.
We wish Shai every success in the future and look forward to updating you throughout the next twelve months.
