Collectivism since 1995
Modern Studies is a departure from solely product coverage on the website and its aim is to promote the many contributors that we have worked over the years with and continue work with to this day.
The fields of film making,Photography,sound and visual art will be represented in this new venture as and when our collaborators present new work in their particular fields.
So we hope you like this venture into a more fluid and magazine like aspect to the Six Eight Seven Six website.
First part of our collaboration with Clarks Originals features a Six Eight Seven Six interpretation of the classic Desert boot which celebrates its 65 year and the Desert Trek which was a shoe worn at the inception of the 6876 journey.
