Firmament

Firmament has been a fixture in Berlin since 2004, running as a single, tightly edited concept store rather than a sprawling chain. The focus has always been on functional, technical clothing, an avant-garde reading of streetwear that sits alongside heritage workwear and outdoor gear, with gorpcore leanings that predate the trend by years. The rail moves from Engineered Garments and nanamica through to WTAPS, Visvim and Neighborhood, with Human Made, Wacko Maria and C.E CAV EMPT adding a sharper Japanese streetwear edge.

Footwear covers Dr. Martens, Clarks Originals, Vans and Hanwag, while in-house line FRMNT and pieces from South2 West8, and wander and Alpha Industries round out a shop built for people who care as much about construction and fabric as they do about the label on the tag.
