Like something half-remembered from a field journal or dreamt on a cliff’s edge, A Delicate Breath traces the outline of fragile life: thin branches or veins, coral or lichen—drawn not in ink, but in the absence of sound.

Every shoe panel offers a study in restraint. On the outside, the organism expands—sharp, intricate, almost organic. On the inside, the tendrils soften, dissipate. One version renders it in quiet black on bone-white canvas, stark and precise as a forensic diagram. The other bathes it in blood-berry red, faded like oxidized ink from a naturalist’s lost tome.

Both are rooted in botanical illustration, but ghosted through with something older, fainter—a whisper of something waiting in the tide pools or pressed in vellum for centuries.

Wonders Whispered About These Wares

Powers Bestowed Upon the Possessor

Trace of the Forgotten Body
You see the anatomy of the overlooked—emotional blueprints, extinct instincts, the lost logic of why we once believed certain things would heal us.

Stillness That Breathes Back
Grants you the power of subtle reanimation. Dormant relationships stir. Forgotten truths re-surface. You are the pulse within the quiet.

Elegy in Root and Branch
You carry the strength of delicate things that survive time: coral, lichen, the lungs of drowned gods. You do not demand space—you claim it by simply continuing.

Jaded Lament Discovery Note

The Laments once mistook these for the lungs of a drowned god. They wore them to funerals and formal hauntings.

Why the Laments Loved This Artifact

  • A wearable specimen: Inspired by historical seaweed and coral etchings, worn like a page torn from a forgotten encyclopedia
  • Color options with narrative weight: Choose bone black for stark elegance or oxidized crimson for quiet decay
  • Subtle, haunting design: Looks botanical at a distance, uncanny up close
  • Fragment of a larger myth: Includes faint plate text (“TAB. LXX”)—a nod to its imagined origin in the Lament Codex
  • Works with cloaks, corsets, overcoats, or modern minimalism

Adored By (and Designed For)

  • Devotees of antique scientific illustration
  • Collectors of natural history ephemera
  • Lovers of fragility and stillness in their strangest forms
  • Ghostly romantics, subtle goths, botanical witches
  • Those who believe beauty lies in the nearly invisible

Atmospheres Clinging to These Relics

  • Quiet reverence
  • Intricate stillness
  • Botanical elegance
  • Faded science & forgotten rituals
  • Precision turned poetic

These Vibes Shall Be the Emanation

These designs radiate the quiet precision of antique botanical studies. The branching patterns evoke seaweed, coral, or fine lichen—something alive but still, fragile yet persistent. It's the feeling of standing in a museum of forgotten flora, or of pressing your breath against glass so thin it remembers you.

Hymns to Strengthen Thy Enchanted Relic

Lend Thine Ear, Fortify Thy Powers. Invoke these chants whilst donning thy wares, that the enchantment might seep deeper into thy bones.

Five tracks that feel like air held in the lungs too long, like memory decaying in a tide pool.

"Holocene" – Bon Iver
Breath as atmosphere. Everything fragile, and still it persists.

"Undo" – Björk
Unraveling as ritual. Soft systems failing with grace.

"Riverside" – Agnes Obel
A song whispered across moss. Grief disguised as quiet observation.

"Hounds" – Burial & Thom Yorke
Fog-laced heartbeat. Movement through unseen data and drowned sound.

"We Have a Map of the Piano" – múm
A musical lichen—growing slowly across silence, precise and alive.
