BOULDERING IS FREEDOM. Climbing without ropes or harnesses over rock formations or artificial walls offers unique mental and physical challenges. As a keen climber, Saberi wanted to expand and enhance the apparel possibilities of bouldering. His personal connection with the sport together with his existing partnership with leading mountain sports brand Salomon resulted in a paradigm shift in bouldering style: the Athletic Bouldering FW23 collection. Created in collaboration with legendary climber Fred Nicole and brand So Ill, the collection brings together technical footwear, clothing and backpacks in a specific design language that both embraces and transcends utilitarianism.
