For their latest release, EXTX THIRTEEN® keeps it clean with the “Triple Black” Zip-Up a staple that blends everyday wear with that signature EXTX edge. We caught up with the designer to talk about the inspiration behind the piece, what makes it stand out, and where the brand’s headed next.
Q1: What inspired the design and vibe behind the Triple Black Zip-Up?
“The zip up is very simple. I felt it was time to finally bring forth a necessity, but with that elevated EXTX identity, and this zip up was the perfect piece for that.”
Our Thoughts:
That’s what EXTX does best — taking something simple and turning it into a statement. The Triple Black feels like a staple piece you’ll reach for daily but still has that quiet confidence and premium feel.
Q2: The hoodie feels minimal but high-quality — what details or materials make it stand out?
“I wanted to find a middle ground for material weight — warm enough for cold weather but light enough for warmer days. Minimalistic but not basic — the silk embroidery on the back and glossy stainless steel double zipper are my favorite touches.”
Our Thoughts:
You can tell this one was made with care. The double zipper and silk detailing give it that subtle luxury vibe it’s lowkey flex without trying too hard.
Q3: You mentioned this release is very limited. Why keep it exclusive?
“EXTX (pronounced exotix) has always been curated to feel exclusive — something that speaks to a specific audience while staying true to that elevated, almost ‘exotic’ feel. Keeping it intentional and limited keeps it closer to what defines EXTX.”
Our Thoughts:
It’s not about hype it’s about intention. EXTX makes pieces for people who actually get it, and that’s what keeps it authentic.
Q4: EXTX THIRTEEN always feels clean and elevated — how do you keep it fresh?
“It’s about refining the simple. Taking something familiar and elevating it through subtle details. At this point, anything I put my personal touch on naturally becomes EXTX.”
Our Thoughts:
EXTX isn’t chasing trends — it’s defining its own lane. Each drop feels like an evolution, staying minimal but never boring.
Q5: What can people expect next from EXTX THIRTEEN?
“This is a new beginning. Everything from this point on is more intentional and rooted in the world I’m building. I’m focusing on refined silhouettes and purposeful pieces — things people will see and say, ‘that’s EXTX.’ I’m also building something new in media.”
Our Thoughts:
It sounds like EXTX is leveling up not just in design but in storytelling. The next chapter feels more creative, more focused, and way more personal.
The “Triple Black” Zip-Up dropped on Friday, 10/10 @ 10AM CT, exclusively at extxthirteen.com.
