Popular skate brand Patta has announced that it is now working with fellow Amsterdam-based company Experimental Jetset to create an expansive line of clothing, accessories, and footwear. For those unfamiliar, Experimental Jetset is an indie design studio that was founded in 1997 with the aim of "turning language into objects."
The new collaboration, titled 'Patta Psychogeographic Practice' features apparel items such as coach jackets, graphic shirts, hoodies, and crewneck sweaters, all of which have been designed to reflect the "aesthetic of metropolitan maps." On the accessory side of things, the collaboration features a new hanglebag and jet-black umbrella, both of which come with graphics featuring arrow imagery.
“The idea of psychogeography is to defy the prescriptive directions leading you through a city and instead drift, explore and wander in a more natural, free-flowing way,” said a spokesperson from Patta explaining the inspiration behind the themes of the new collab.
