For almost a decade, Jun Takahashi has worked with Nike on the running-focused Gyakusou line, which takes inspiration from his own sporting interest and probes the interplay of fluid movement, fixed environment and the meditative value of running. Beginning this summer, Takasashi extends his relationship with Nike by way of a formal collaboration with his brand, UNDERCOVER.
'With Nike, we are able to explore technical materials and fabrications that allow for new investigations of UNDERCOVER's design principles,' says Takahashi.
With the debut of Nike x UNDERCOVER, Takahashi challenges two things: static volume and utility norms.
