British menswear designer, Martine Rose has collaborated with the US-based sportswear giant Nike. The London-based designer will work on the brand’s upcoming capsule collection set to go live next month.
Notably, the brand’s upcoming capsule collection will feature tracksuits, football jerseys and an exclusive version of the Nike Air Monarch.
“It was very intentional to use the Monarch as the silhouette, being a very American shoe, and then put it with the very English silhouette of the tracksuit.” – Martine Rose, British designer
It is pertinent to mark out that, these track pants were created with surplus material and football jerseys were given an oversized fit with the extra amount pleated into the sleeves to create a play on proportions.
The UK-based designer further added that activewear has been a part of different youth movements across England and America for a number of years now. The acceptability is the key to this segment, as now customers can mix it in with any other type of apparel.
This collaboration has come after Nike recently, collaborated with Yoon Ahn, co-founder of Ambush and Jewelry for Dior Men. The collection offered two coats, a stretch bodysuit, a crop top and fleece pants for the athleisure wear behemoth.
