Urban Mythology

In Urban Mythology, photographer and stylist Jarrod Adams crafts a visual narrative rooted in concrete textures, soft rebellion, and iconic menswear. Set against gritty backdrops and moody light, model Julio Cano embodies a modern-day demigod—equal parts muscle, memory, and myth.

The opening look is stripped back and iconic: a fitted white tank and oversized denim by Calvin Klein, worn with ease and intention. It’s classic, clean, and distinctly American—a visual cue that sets the tone for a story of strength through simplicity.

Crouched above the street, Julio wears head-to-toe Calvin Klein denim, layered and loose, echoing the brand’s golden era. His presence is powerful, but never forced—a contemporary echo of 90s freedom and fashion defiance.

In the most intimate frame, a retro Tommy Hilfiger argyle turtleneck clashes seductively with exposed Calvin Klein briefs. Finishing the look: oversized vintage Tom Ford sunglasses, adding a layer of mystery and wit to an already bold silhouette.

The series closes with a touch of tailored polish from Hugo Boss—clean lines and structure grounding the chaos, like armor in the urban sprawl.

Urban Mythology is a study in modern masculinity—confident, layered, and unforgettable. Shot and styled by Jarrod Adams, it invites us to believe in the power of style as story, and the city as its stage.
