The rose is historically one of the most symbolic flowers and carries different meanings depending on color, bloom and context. In memorials, a traditional red rose typically represents the deepest emotions associated with the grief and the ache of missing someone.

As true to Matt as it gets, this shirt was designed to be brash and unapologetic. Sometime around 2012, New York-based designer, Ruslan Karablin of SSUR parodied the famous high-fashion label “Comme Des Garçons” branding into “Comme Des F**kdown”. The popularity of the parody skyrocketed and became a cultural phenomenon on Tumblr that year after it was heavily adopted by A$AP Rocky and the A$AP Mob - some of Matts’ favorite artists & style influences at the time. I know this piece isn’t for everyone, but I also know that it’s an in-your-f**king-face conversation starter piece that will make sure people know his name. And if they don’t, they’ll definitely ask.

The ‘Eternal Flame’ is inspired by one of Matts favorite clothing brands, “Two In The Shirt”, or better known as “TITS”. Matt had what seemed like a closet full of these tees that featured half-naked models in various poses with slogans adorned as a massive screen print across the front. For a slightly more “tasteful” approach, but to still honor his taste, I went with a pinup style model flicking a cigarette and tied it back to the reminder to keep the fire burning in Matts’ name eternally, so that he’s never forgotten.

The “Wreath of Wrath” features a hurricane of cherubs (that nod back to the original Rest In Power graphic from 2016), mixed with various florals & skulls - reminiscent of some of the most iconic Y2K streetwear imagery that ruled in popularity when SOSICO. was in its prime. Interwoven throughout the wreath is Matt’s iconic mariner-style chain that he was known to wear daily. Final highlight is a sneaky little pot leaf poking through in one corner.

On the morning of February 29, 2016, the world lost a brilliant mind and beautiful heart.

Ten years ago, Matthew left us on a day that only exists every four years: February 29th; leap year.

These ten years have felt like a lifetime.
The world looks a little different now, but we work keep his memory alive.

Join us, Saturday October 17, 2026, to celebrate the life and legacy of Matthew Colwell.

Decade - a documentary on ten years (2012-2022) of SOSICO. coming soon.

At the start of 2022 we began filming what was originally intended to be a single episode of a new platform & video series started by some friends. Little did we know that shortly after wrapping up a two-day film schedule, the project would be entirely abandoned. With their blessing, we decided to take their footage & pick up where they had left off with the new intention of spinning this into a full length documentary highlighting ten years of SOSICO. Due to timing & lack of resources we shelved the project ourselves for almost two years, but eventually came back to it in the Fall of 2023 and started editing.
