UNISEX FIT. This product runs smaller than usual. Please consult the size guide before ordering. Size Guide — Inches

Featuring Salsa, a Dance Story from Origins: Dawn Dance Stories by Modern Living Guide, brought to life through the creative interpretation of designer Ekele Stephen.

Born from Original Dawn × Dawn Canela, Salsa brings two familiar expressions of Dawn together within a new geometric composition of repetition, direction, contrast, and movement.

Drawing inspiration from Salsa’s transnational cultural journey through Caribbean and Latin influences and its remarkable development in New York, the design reflects the central idea behind Dance Stories: familiar expressions of Dawn finding new rhythm through movement and composition.

The original Dawn geometry and the Canela color story alternate through vertical and horizontal arrangements, creating a repeating visual rhythm across the design. Neither expression disappears. Instead, they move together—transforming two established members of the Dawn family into something new.

Now, Color Finds Its Rhythm.

Designed for lightweight comfort, versatility, and effortless everyday style, the Origins: Dawn Salsa Windbreaker Jacket carries this new expression of Dawn across a vibrant all-over design. Whether layered over everyday essentials, worn while traveling, or brought along for changing weather, it brings the rhythm and dynamic character of Salsa into contemporary living.

Crafted from lightweight polyester, the Salsa Windbreaker Jacket combines practical weather resistance with contemporary style. Its full front zipper, elastic cuffs, and two spacious side pockets provide everyday functionality, while the lightweight construction makes it easy to layer and comfortable to wear. Wind- and water-resistant performance adds protection when conditions change, transforming a practical outerwear essential into a distinctive expression of Origins: Dawn Dance Stories.

About the Design

Origins: Dawn Salsa continues the journey of Dawn.

The story began with Original Dawn, a balanced geometric composition inspired by heritage, craftsmanship, nature, and contemporary living.

Dawn Canela followed as one of eight Spice Stories, transforming the character of the original pattern through color while preserving its underlying geometry and rhythm.

Now, the two come together.

Original Dawn × Dawn Canela becomes Salsa.

Through a shared checkerboard composition, alternating orientations create repetition, direction, contrast, and visual movement. Drawing inspiration from Salsa’s transnational journey through Caribbean and Latin influences and its development in New York, the composition gives two familiar expressions of Dawn a new contemporary identity.

Salsa is one of eight Dance Stories. Together, they form the next chapter of the Origins: Dawn journey:
