To date, Trainerspotter has worked on special collaborative projects with globally recognised stores including BEAMS Tokyo, United Arrows Japan, BODEGA Boston, PATTA Amsterdam, LIBERTY of London, FRED SEGAL Los Angeles and individual artists, groups and DJ's such as De La Soul, Roots Manuva, Goldilocks, Bloc Party, The Arctic Monkeys, Mike Skinner, Toddla T, Saint NYC, Tynchy Stryder, Skream, Bailey and Brodinski. Trainerspotter garments are sold in the world’s most prestigious streetwear stores and have also been featured in magazines including CLARK, Arena Homme Plus, ID, The Sunday Times magazine, WAD, Radar, The Face, ATM, Milk Japan and Inc. Magazine.
TRAINERSPOTTER Spring and Summer 10
The SS10 collection is inspired by classic 1940's and 50's animation, skateboarding, surfing and US college sportswear.
Graphic influences are drawn from WW2 squadron patches, 70's Californian Skate brands, the Vietnam War and the Black Power Movement.
Sweatshirts, hoods and pants combine signature details from early Champion sports apparel with colours reminiscent of 1980s surf-culture t-shirts in a postmodern fusion.
Forgotten College pieces such as the short sleeve sweatshirt are reinvented for the 21st century with a Trainerspotter twist whilst the Palm logo is transformed into an embroidered applique, subtly subverting the iconic 'badge' logos of certain 70s and 80s sports brands.
Complimented by a range of headwear and sunglasses that follow the same themes, the SS10 collection continues the Trainerspotter tradition of sports meets fashion with a nod to the street. Help mould the future by celebrating the past.
The Spring 10 collection is released Mid Feb, please sign up to the news letter for further updates.
We would like to thank Stephen Mann, owner of the blog 'The Non Place' for his direction and we would like to thank Neil Bedford, British Fashion Photographer..
We also thank our good friends and DJ's 'The Woooooooorld Famous Dixon Bros'!!! for lending their faces for the shoot. Looking good and thank you.
