adidas Skateboarding x Ari Marcopoulos

 

 adidas' Skateboarding department have combined with photographer Ari Marcopoulos on a small capsule release which draws from the hustle and bustle of the Big Apple. The release includes a zine, limited edition rework of the brands skate ready Seeley silhouette and accompanying apparel, all of which takes inspiration from Ari's signature documentary style photography and self-published zines. The stand-out from the collection is the unique take on the Seeley, which has been reworked with a full-grain leather upper and a woven lining for increased comfort. The numbered graphics along the piping of the sole unit represent those on a film contact sheet, while the “Aight” patch on the tongue is taken from the masthead of Ari's zine by the same name.

 The adidas Skateboarding x Ari Marcopoulos collection is available now online at adidas.co.uk.

 Having given us a detailed look at their new seasonal collection last month, Carhartt WIP have now combined with photographer Colin Sussingham and creative director Hayden Taatjes to showcase the collection in a brand knew editorial named "Alone At Last". The visuals capture some of the key pieces from the latest offering against the baron landscape of Joshua Tree, California. The rugged construction of the updated workwear silhouettes go hand in hand with the terrain, as they pay homage to earlier decades and the timelessness of the range.
