The creative minds over at DC Shoes are back. They showcase their love of art with a special new collaborative collection this time around. The skate-inspired footwear brand has joined forces with The Andy Warhol Foundation for a new footwear and apparel capsule. The new collection draws on the concept of creative “Collisions,” including opposing ideas. Inspiration includes: WAR & PEACE, SAINTS & SINNERS, LIFE & DEATH and STRENGTH & FRAGILITY.
Andy Warhol was one of the most prominent artists of the 20th century. His artwork is iconic, merging high and low art while touching on western consumerism. In the collaborative capsule with DC Shoes, the artist’s work is brought to life with a progressive style. The collection taps into pop culture and art, providing something eye-catching and unique. The apparel collection includes an array of graphic T-shirts, long sleeves, and hoodies. Each piece remixes some of Warhol’s familiar art, boasting an affinity for primary colors and repetition.
On the footwear end of things, the collection includes graphic overlays and motifs that are focused on themes of religion, mortality, and more. The range includes signature slides, slip-ons, and high and low top sneakers, adding DC heritage with pops of color and art. The lineup aims to harness the energy of Warhol’s legacy, doing so with undeniable style and quality.
