Stüssy and Nike kick off 2021 with a recycled clothing collaboration

The fabric of the future seems to be confirmed in recycled nylon.

From carpets to fishing nets used, Nike for the collaboration with Stüssy creates a collection from the fabric composed of 75% recicle nylon.

A clothing capsule consisting of three pieces, a hooded down jacket, a skirt and trousers, to be combined with the Air Force 1 to complete a sustainable street outfit. The graphics of the garments are made unique by the contrast of the black Nike and Stüssy brand superimposed on a special shaded green print. The automatic buttons and adjustable tie-rods match the militaristic motif giving life to street garments with over-structured silhouettes.

It is not just the appearance that counts. In fact, Thermore EcoDown replaces the traditional down inside the bomber with recycled polyester which in the same way regulates the temperature by resisting both water and wind.

The icing of this new collaboration between Stüssy and Nike are the Air Force 1, whose canvas is hand-dyed in Los Angeles, by Lookout & Wonderland, through an artistic practice that uses the color of plants to recreate the graphics of the sneakers.

Slowly dyed with plants chosen for their color and medicinal properties soothing on the skin, all natural dyes are collected in an ethical way. 5 unique dyes were chosen to represent each of the cities on the Stüssy world tour.
