The latest skate collab is by adidas Skateboarding and Tokyo-based brand Evisen. The partnership explores the cultural similarities and differences in the community within Eastern and Western contexts. The collection -- which consists of five stylish offerings, is designed to hit the intersection of functionality and fashion-forward appeal.
The garments are cross-seasonal, allowing individuals to layer-up and wear the clothing year-round. From a heavy-weight fleece crewneck that is bound to keep one cozy and warm to a woven pique fabric jersey that features water-resisting qualities, the skate collab is supplemented by a custom 3MC footwear. Part of a previous adidas Skateboarding shoe range, this model is developed with strong references to the aesthetics of Evisen. Naturally, the footwear is made to be extremely durable and flexible to promote natural and supported movements.
