Patta and Nike have collaborated in order to launch a line of exclusive apparel, including a versatile retro tracksuit. As expected, the designs are clean and feature a super logo imposition of the infamous Nike swoosh. The highlight of the collection, however, is the Millennial pink Nike half-zip windbreaker for men. It is a well-balanced design that features a comfortable pocket—a dream for the bike enthusiast.
This collection is highly exclusive, as it was only available at the two-day Nike Air Span II temporary shop on Zeedijk 61, Amsterdam. The Patta x Nike apparel launched as an add-on to the Nike Air Span II re-release. Hopefully, the high-tech sportswear will motivate a reemergence of the retro tracksuit and windbreaker.
