Stylish to the stars, Ilaria Urbinati, has aligned with her former world-ranked champion martial arts trainer Johnny Hunt for something special. The two have aligned with the sportswear brand Roots of Fight for a new Kung Fu Collection. The new collection is inspired by Shaolin, one of the four holy Buddhist temples of China. It was also the first temple to institutionalize Kung Fu.
Due to its famous association with Kung Fu, Shaolin plays a significant role throughout the collection. Shaolin Kung Fu carries deep reverence and vibrancy with bursting color. The Kung Fu Collection comprises activewear and athleisure pieces boasting imagery of the Shaolin temple and the iconic Five Animals. Depicted are the tiger, the crane, the leopard, the snake, and the dragon.
These five animals inspire the ancient martial arts practice of Kung Fu. The lineup pays homage to martial arts’ spiritual birthplace and the colorful cult-favorite ‘80s kung fu films.
Take a closer look at this fantastic new lineup in the images, and head over to Roots of Fight to pick up your favorite pieces. In the meantime, keep it locked with The Culture Curators for more style and streetwear selections coming soon!
