The Stonemasters: Inspiration for Šumska Collection I

 
Šumska Collection I
The Stonemasters - limited collection

The Šumska Collection is inspired by the vibrant colours, spirited youth, and hiking culture of the late 1970s, set against the striking white granite cliffs found in both the European mountains and Yosemite National Park. This collection pays homage to the legendary Yosemite Stonemasters—the pioneering rock climbers who revolutionised mountain climbing with their rebellious spirit and iconic style. Known for their signature look—white painter pants, chalk bags, headbands, flowing hair, and a sun-soaked Californian vibe—the Stonemasters brought a unique mix of style, counter-culture, and athleticism to the sport.

Šumska's first collection captures the vitality, freedom, and flair that defined the Stonemasters' approach to climbing.

We’ve created a collection of bold, rich colours with designs that are minimal, slim, feminine, and slightly androgynous. Using premium fine merino wool and durable, stretch, water-repellent fabrics with advanced technical features—materials that simply weren’t available during the Stonemasters era—we’ve combined style with function. Our fabrics are dyed to exclusive colours, created specifically for Šumska, adding a layer of distinctiveness to each piece. These pieces give you the freedom to dress boldly, confidently, and effortlessly cool, just like the Stonemasters—while embracing a life of adventure and independence.
