NikeLab Tisci Collection
October 2017, NikeLab Chicago
Design Direction: Bryon Panaia
Lead Designer: Krissy Harbert
Producer: Errol Andam
NikeLab and Riccardo Tisci’s collaboartion blurs the line between basketball and off-court style. Tisci’s obsession with basketball is widely documented as the designer grew up playing the sport religiously, and now he’s used this inspiration to create a four-piece apparel collection. Tisci created a fictional new basketball squad where these garments would be represented: The Victorious Minotaurs. “In the ‘90s, basketball players became kind of like rock stars,” Tisci says. “But now, they’re more than rock stars. They’re superhuman — representative of historic mythology.”
