From color block tracksuits to full-back graphic tees, the [Spring/Summer 2018 collaboration](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/martine-rose-x-napapijri) between Tokyo-based monkey time and Parisian label FUTUR delivers a 90s-inspired sportswear collection. The clothing designs boast a predominantly blue, yellow and navy palette. The comfort and breathability are evident in the fit of the pieces.

The monkey time x FUTUR lookbook showcases the warm weather-appropriate designs in a laid-back urban landscape. If one begins to situate the 90s-inspired sportswear collection in a cultural context, one can witness the subtle nods to youth skate culture. The [retro silhouettes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/space-jam-30th-anniversary) have roots in timeless design, making the overall presence of the tracksuits, sweatshirts, long sleeves, shorts, caps and graphic T-shirts suitable for any casual occasion in the fashion scene. Without a doubt, 90s-inspired sportswear is going strong even in 2018.
