ITK Kit stylist and buyer Ildar Iksanov about favorite things

FOR RUBBER "WARDROBE" we take pictures of beautiful, original or strangely dressed people in their favorite things and ask them to tell stories related to them. Before the New Year holidays we decided that we wanted to hear them not only from the heroines, but also from the heroes. This week we asked Ildar Iksanov, a buyer and a stylist of the ITK Kit project, to tell about their favorite things.

I have no task to surprise anyone - I strive to look simple and modern. For example, in most cases, I wear white sneakers. This is my favorite color of shoes: no need to think about what to combine it with, because white sneakers always look good with everything. I immediately bought two pairs of white riboks to close the shoe issue for the near future. Of course, I am impressed by Common Projects and other laconic sneakers, but lately I have been thinking more and more about the price-quality ratio. I can say that practicality and convenience are what I am guided by when buying clothes.

Cardigan Needles, Longsleeve Copson, Our Legacy Pants, Converse 1970 Sneakers

The Needles mohair sweater refers to the 90th and the grunge (well, you know who this is about). Longsleeve Copson is a small discovery for me this year. Plain white longsliv with nice graphics on the back, nothing more. These "conversions" are my favorites. I wear them with everything and always.

Our Legacy Blazer, Stone Island Jeans, Gosha Rubchinskiy T-shirt

I like black, but in clothes this color looks cooler in the washed version. A t-shirt with a print by Timur Novikov is an organic fit to this monochrome image.

Uniqlo Turtleneck, Aspesi Blazer, Our Legacy Pants, adidas Micropacer Sneakers

The Aspesi nylon blazer is one of my favorite things in the wardrobe. Very convenient and it easily folds into a special bag. I combine high-tech nylon with a futuristic model of adidas sneakers.

Blazer Needles Rebuild, Our Legacy Shirt, LVC Jeans, Reebok Sneakers

The Needles Rebuild Blazer is probably the most interesting thing in my wardrobe. The jacket is made of old military uniform. In this case, the fabric is cut from various units of military clothing, including trousers, jackets, shirts, and then re-sewn into the new model, so that each element is completely unique. The shirt is one of the very first of my online purchases, and remains the most expensive thing for me, so when my elbows were worn out, I decided to update it.

Engineered Garments Coat, The Real McCoy's sweatshirt, Engineered Garments pants, Norse Projects scarf, Reebok sneakers, Supreme hat

I like that the coat is two-sided, but one of the sides is too bright, so I often choose another. The down scarf is the best accessory that you can think of in winter. Despite his main task - to protect the throat - he performs well the function of the inner layer and heats like a down vest.

Ten C Lining, Hoody Dime, Our Legacy Pants, Reebok Sneakers

Despite the fact that it is a lining to the jacket, I wear it like a normal jacket. I like the nylon mix with sheepskin - it looks more interesting. And it is very warm. Hoodie Dime - this is the case when the color and the inscription are perfect for each other.

Ten C jacket, The Real McCoy's sweatshirt, Engineered Garments vest, LVC jeans, New Balance 991 sneakers, Ebbets Field Flannel cap

The classic silhouette of the M65 jacket combined with a classic set of things (sneakers, loose-fitting jeans, a cap) is a win-win option.

Bomber Jacket Stone Island Shadow Project, CE T-shirt, Woolrich pants, Reebok sneakers

I am very impressed by bombers, and this is the very case when I can say with confidence that this thing is one of the favorite things in my wardrobe.

Our Legacy Coat, The Real McCoy's sweatshirt, Porter bag, adidas Micropacer sneakers

I like to combine classic silhouettes - overcoats and trousers are responsible for them with sporting things, for example, with a belt bag and sneakers. This is my favorite mix, everything looks harmonious. The balance for me is the most important, not only in relation to appearance, but also in work and in life.

Our Legacy Coat, LVC Jeans, Real McCoy's Hoody, LVC Jeans, Supreme Hat, Сonverse Sneakers

That's how I look every day. "Converse" - namely, their 1970 line - for me while remain the benchmark in the world of shoe. They have a simple design, but this coloring attracts more attention than standard editions.

Visvim Backpack

For a long time I was looking for this backpack in black, and on the New Year I made myself such a gift. Despite the seeming huge size, it is ideal for the city.

Inventory x Sassafrass and MHL Bags

These bags have gone through a lot and still look great.

Sun Buddies Glasses, Porter Bag

I searched for a good waist bag for a long time and bought it in my shop. I really like this black nylon, which is both lightweight and high strength.

Badges Supreme, Our Legacy, Sacred Bones, Thieves Like Us

Without noticing it, I began collecting badges, but this small part of my collection, because everything else is now in Riga, where I spend a lot of time.
