ADIDAS CONSORTIUM – PACKER X SOLEBOX

Posted on 2017-10-23

The Sneaker Exchange 2017 challenges adidas Consortium’s retail partners to overcome geographical distance and cultural differences to find common ground and collaborate on a footwear pack.
The November installation of the Sneaker Exchange comes from New Jersey’s Packer Shoes and Berlin’s Solebox. Both luminaries in their respective territories, Packer and Solebox actually embrace aforementioned geographical distance and the space that separates them.
They use the famous Silfra Rift, a point on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge where North American and Eurasian tectonic plates meet, as the basis for their UltraBOOST MID and an Energy Boost. The visual inspiration for the sneaker pack is The Silfra Rift, and inland lake in Island. Its crystal clear water rises from deep within the earth and offers great underwater visibility with a rich array of blue tones.

Posted on 2017-10-16

New Richardson FW17 item “We are off to join the circus” Grey Organization X Richardson collab.
The Grey Organisation was an artist collective active from 1983 to 1991. Founded by members Toby Mott, Daniel Saccoccio, Tim Burke and Paul Spencer, Grey Organization worked in several media including film and video and participated in over 20 international exhibitions. They’re notably known for their acts of “art terrorism”, where they smuggled one of their paintings into the International Contemporary Arts Fair in London, and then the following year mounted an attack on Cork Street, the former center of London’s art scene, by splashing grey paint on the windows of a number of galleries. After being banned from central London, the group relocated to New York City where they exhibited at the Civilian Warfare Gallery in the East Village.
