The latest iteration of Nike's Back-to-School collection features colorful patches designed for young and passionate fashionistas. Sew-on patches are the ultimate accessory for expression, as they are available ready-made. This makes them appealing to those who are less inclined to take on DIY projects, while still achieving a level of personalization and individuality, since they can be placed on virtually anything.
The patches include graphic illustrations aimed to maintain gender neutrality, appealing to both boys and girls. Designed by Tim Easley, the bold creations elicit a sense of youthful rebellion and expression through a boisterous color palette and charming illustrations. Some patches feature goofy graphics of soccer or basketballs, while others feature the defining Nike 'Swoosh' logo above inspirational phrases like "Dream Big" or "Just Do It."
