Cakey Sportsman lives in a world of untethered creativity, embodying our most playful and authentic selves.

Designer, artist, maker and performance artist Matea Gluščević 

[ Matea Glušćevič; pronounced Mah-tay-ah Gloo-sh-ch-eh-vich ] 

has tapped into her psyche to bring the unadulterated energy of Cakey Sportsman into the real world. Known for her unique handcrafted footwear, she has now come full circle and has returned to creating all forms of wearable items under her new brand, Cakey Sportsman.

Established in 2025, Cakey Sportsman has a unique expressive structure - with one creative/couture runway per year that is then distilled into ready-to-wear in the following months, with several drops throughout the year.

Cakey Sportsman stands as a beacon of individuality in the world of wearable items by exploring ideas of the self and identity beyond social frameworks, and how the infinite nature of self expression intertwines with the relatively limited nature materials and processes.

Cakey Sportsman is for those who love to play, feel, express and actively be.
