This is a short film about the story of Ikiré Jones, the brainchild of two first-generation children from Nigeria and Cambodia. A tale of history and rebellion. An Afro-futurist take on the modern suit.
Ikiré Jones is the endeavor of designer/afrobeat musician/attorney Walé Oyéjidé, and bespoke tailor/musician Sam Hubler. The two artists with a passion for creating beautiful things that sit to the left of what has been resignedly accepted as the status quo.
"We make clothing for adventurous people. It is a common-enough goal, but one rarely accomplished with elegance... We strive to give each piece an identity and history of its own. " Ikiré Jones
