# Warped Logo Archival Sneakers FILA Taps Nearly 50 Collaborators To Revive the Mindblower Shoe By Amy Duong | Published 2018-04-19 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mindblower References: [highsnobiety](https://www.highsnobiety.com/p/fila-mindblower-collaborations) & [fila](http://www.fila.com/) Sportswear label [FILA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/casa-fila) draws the talents of nearly 50 collaborators to revive its iconic Mindblower silhouette. The label taps its archive to relaunch the footwear that originally made its debut back in 1995. The [chunky sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/noir-kei) are recognized for the warped logo adorning a large part of the shoe's side. In addition to the revival of the sneakers, the label also introduces the Mindbreaker 2.0 -- crafted in collaboration with a plethora of international contributors. This includes the talents of retailers, artists, influencers, and designers. Paying homage to partnerships from the past and in the present, each individual design reflects the respective creative vibes through design components, colorways, and graphic details. Some contributors include Kinfolk, Burn Rubber, [Pink Dolphin](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/quickliner-for-lips), and Lafayette. The Mindblower and Mindbreaker 2.0 will be available for purchase beginning April 20. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.7/10 - Popularity: 86% | Activity: 76% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/shoes) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Collaborative Footwear Reimagining:** The revival of classic sneakers through collaboration with multiple designers and influencers opens up opportunities for disruptive innovation in the footwear industry. - **Archive-inspired Sneaker Revival:** Brands tapping into their archives to relaunch iconic sneakers offers a chance for disruptive innovation in the fashion industry by blending nostalgia with contemporary design. - **Chunky Sneaker Resurgence:** The resurgence of chunky sneakers, like FILA's Mindblower, presents disruptive innovation opportunities in the athletic footwear market by combining retro aesthetics with modern design elements. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** Collaborative footwear reimagining and archive-inspired sneaker revival present disruptive innovation opportunities in the fashion industry. - **Footwear:** Collaborative footwear reimagining and chunky sneaker resurgence offer disruptive innovation opportunities in the athletic footwear industry. - **Design:** Collaborative footwear reimagining and archive-inspired sneaker revival create disruptive innovation opportunities in the design industry by blending nostalgia with contemporary aesthetics. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Premium Street-Informed Sportswear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fila-4.md) - [Collaborative Archival Footwear Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/archival-footwear-design.md) - [Female-Focused Sneaker Collabs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pf-flyers-x-chillhouse.md) - [Flame-Themed Retro Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flames-collection.md) - [Heritage-Honoring Collaborative Skate Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fuct-collaboration.md) - [Textured Sneaker Collabs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beams-and-vans.md) - [Vibrant Runner Revivals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fogbethecloud.md) - [Colorful Paneling Collaborative Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-force-iii-1.md) - [Collaborative Bold Sneaker Models](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/puma-and-salehe.md)
