Designing this milestone collection allowed time to reflect on Deadly Ponies’ two-decade journey. Deadly Ponies’ Founders, Liam Bowden and Steve Boyd, described delving into the archives as “like wandering through a living garden, with wild ideas and chaos down every path.”
The seasonal palette and textures draw from Greenvale, Steve’s family home in Geraldine. A stroll through the garden revealed intricate details that shaped the collection’s colours and materials.
The soft, yellow moss blanketing birch trees inspired the Oat colourway, available in Oat Suede, Oat Croc, and Oat Ironed Calf, alongside Birch Python.
Kale Suede evokes the lush greens of the vegetable patch, while Iceberg Croc and Iceberg Calf Nappa mirror the delicate two-tone hues of pale pumpkin skin, neither blue nor grey, but a subtle blend of both.
