Montreal’s finest: Franck & Oak x Dave 1

We truly love Franck & Oak refreshing branding strategy. In less than a year the Montreal-based online store has become THE online destination for stylish gentlemen in Canada and beyond. And for their latest collaboration, they teamed up with trendsetter  and (not -so) local dandy Chromeo‘s Dave 1 for a capsule collection featuring “essentials you can effortlessly combine.”
