Brain Dead and BEAMS work in collaboration once again -- this time, the streetwear duo come together to rework a tracksuit and sneakers from sportswear label Reebok. The track pants are a slouchy silhouette with a cropped cut and tapered end, which is designed for lounging purposes rather than for running. The reworked track jacket replaces the usual zipper enclosure with a collarless finish inspired by the traditional Noragi style. Both the track jacket and pants are finished in a navy blue tone that is adorned with imagery that merges together Brain Dead's logo silhouette and Reebok's wheel.
The same branding motifs are seen on a new iteration of the label's Classic Leather runners that merge the tracksuit's blue tonal hues in a blend of hairy suede materials and a contrasting smooth grain leather. The collaborative Brain Dead and BEAMS collection will be available online at BEAMS beginning September 1.
