On June 24th, Pigalle and Nike's collaborative line of athleisure wear will be available in NikeLab stores.
To design the pieces, Pigalle and Nike took ques from Parisian street style -- making for an end result that's both chic and casual. Due to their unique configuration, the pieces have a versatility to them that allows them to be worn as fashionable streetwear, or as functional gym gear. In addition, the Pigalle and Nike collection makes use of rather uniform colorways that give it a cohesive aesthetic -- with hues of royal blue, white, and pink marking the material in different combinations.
Stéphane Ashpool, the founder of Pigalle, explained the collection by saying, "It’s an evolution of ’90s basketball allure from the U.S., but in an elegant, Parisian way."
