TweetThe collection features a lineup of apparel items, including black and white T-shirts and tote bags, all bearing Astro Boy graphics. The geometric abstraction art style is reminiscent of the previously showcased ATOM VS. ASTRO sculpture and reflects De Guzman’s knack for fusing traditional and experimental techniques.

For the Olympic Winter Games Beijing 2022, Spyder was inspired by the creative theme of “American Originals.” As a result, we partnered with a truly all-American artist and designer for the U.S. Ski Team Uniforms.
Eric Haze is a New York City native, artist, and designer currently based out of Brooklyn, NY. Since 1972 he has been integral to bringing street style to mainstream culture. Known for his bold and iconic hand styles, he helped define the visual landscape of the hip-hop generation working with legendary musicians like the Beastie Boys and LL Cool J. His trademark style, which regularly includes his signature star, is featured throughout the 2022 Spyder Olympic Collection.
TweetLondon-based designer Craig Green has continued his ongoing adidas Originals partnership, debuting a new silhouette featuring his first sole unit. Dubbed the CG SCUBA PHORMAR, the silhouette showcases this special sole design, which wraps around the foot and features a ridged texture inspired by Green’s quilting in other collections.
As well as its statement sole unit, the CG SCUBA PHORMAR also incorporates the cording structure used through Craig Green’s collaborations with adidas Originals. The silhouette is constructed from a collapsible structure held together by tunnels and cords, including a top cord that runs from the toe cap and along the eyestays, and a second cord that feeds across the toe and links it to the heel of the shoe.

Junya Watanabe MAN has teamed up with Jamiroquai front-man Jay Kay for its Fall/Winter 2022 collection.
Jay Kay, who founded the British jazz-funk band in 1992, became renowned not only for his supreme vocals and songwriting through the ‘90s, but for his bold sense of style which drew inspiration from the Iroquoian family — the Native American tribe in which the band takes its name — and other indigenous cultures of the world.
Now, together with the front man and The Secretariat of Culture of Mexico, Junya Watanabe MAN presents an FW22 collection that expertly pairs the Japanese designer’s classic aesthetic and palette, with the colorful and vibrant patterns of the Iroquois and Jay Kay’s extravagant looks.
