Great to see Adidas x Unity team up!
Adidas Skateboarding and Unity join forces to deliver a collaborative release for the Fall/Winter 2020 season ahead. Formed in 2017 by Jeffrey Cheung and Gabriel Ramirez with the goal of creating a safe space in skateboarding for LGBTQ+ people, Unity has become a global expression of acceptance and positivity.
Emanating the Unity crew’s message of “Don’t Be Afraid of Who You Are”, the gender-neutral apparel and footwear lineup celebrates the queer and trans community in skateboarding and the power of DIY. Through vibrant detailing and a diverse product offering, the collection is a bold declaration grounded in individuality and inclusion. Made with a message of solidarity, the collaboration aims to spark creativity and change.
Cheung’s expressive illustrations transform Adidas apparel staples and two skateboarding footwear silhouettes into a creative platform of the Unity spirit. Incorporating pastel hues and premium materials, the collection is a multi-seasonal offering of shorts, shirts, a hoodie, track jacket, and custom footwear that includes the Unity Continental Vulc and recently introduced Coronado.
The Adidas Skateboarding x Unity collection releases this Friday, August 28th via adidas.com/skateboarding and select skate retailers.
