A celebration of the great sneaker collaborations that have
reimagined the shoe, elevating this most practical of footwear into
the realm of wearable art. The ubiquitous sneaker is the canvas
upon which so many defiers of convention--artists, musicians,
athletes, and celebrities--have sought to make their mark and
through the sneaker contribute to a unique identity and attitude
among sneakerheads everywhere. Collected here are the best sneaker
collaborations with the biggest makers--Adidas, Converse, Nike,
Puma, Reebok--featuring nearly one hundred famous, infamous, and
lesser-known partnerships. Museum-quality studio photographs of
each sneaker are accompanied by visuals collected from the archives
of sneaker makers, as well as ephemera such as design sketches and
drawings illustrating the creative process. Author Elizabeth
Semmelhack has conducted interviews with many collaborators,
including an extensive Q&A with Chris Hill, design manager of
Reebok, who has worked with Pyer Moss, Cam'ron, and many others. In
her introduction, Semmelhack explores the history of
collaborations, starting at the beginning with Jack Purcell, whose
sneakers remain virtually unchanged today. More than eighty sneaker
collaborations are featured, including Virgil Abloh (ten styles!),
KAWS, Pharrell Williams, Bobbito Garcia, Damien Hirst, Jeremy
Scott, Eminem, Supreme, Chanel, Missoni, Rihanna, Missy Elliott,
Dr. Woo, and Fear of God.
