Adidas will open a pop-up show offering custom, vintage, and upcycled pieces from designers and creators that could be purchased by weight in used goods instead of dollars.
The effort continues the brand's mission in helping end plastic waste and creates an environmentally friendly manner of disposing of clothing.
The endeavor collaborates with Adidas' Choose to Give Back resale program.
Each involved creator such as Theophilio, Ji Won Choi, Basketcase Gallery, Eva Joan Repair, Tyranny & Mutation, and more will impart their sensibilities on sustainability and Adidas design history.
2021 CFDA American Emerging Designer of the Year awardee Theophilio will present a seven-piece collection of patchwork pants, t-shirts, hoodies, and crewnecks, inspired by Adidas apparel.
According to Theophilio designer Edvin Thompson, as sustainability is instrumental in producing their pieces, they are thrilled to develop a bespoke collection made entirely of upcycled materials from a brand that shares their values.
The event will also feature on-site customizations and repairs by Eva Joan Repair and live screen-printing by Basketcase Gallery.
Katja Schreiber, Adidas SVP of sustainability, noted that the company's solution is to face clothing waste head-on and shift towards a circular future.
The pop-up shop will operate on Saturday, December 11 at 61 Crosby Street, New York City, from 12:00 pm to 7:00 pm ET.
