Sean Wotherspoon, the American designer, artist and hardcore sneaker collector well-known for creating the Nike Air Max 1/97 has a flowery new title to tack onto his resume: World Classic Curator at Hole. In his new function, the multi-hyphenate will launch the GapVintage program, a globally sourced curation that will likely be launched in a collection of seasonal drops all year long.
“I’m excited to see Hole take curated management over the provision of its classic product and renew this program in a fair greater method since we pioneered it virtually two years in the past,” stated Wotherspoon. “Because the classic and secondhand market continues to develop and resonate amongst youthful generations, I’m wanting ahead to bringing GapVintage to the arms of as we speak’s youth world wide.”
This system’s first drop will embrace a few of Wotherspoon’s favourite Hole grails, which date again to the ’80s and ’90s. These embrace Hole necessities, just like the model’s ’90s Striped Pocket T-shirt and Basic Emblem Hoodie, in addition to rarer clothes, just like the ’80s Denim Jacket Hoodie and ’90s Nylon Anorak Zip-Up Windbreaker.
The primary GapVintage drop will turn out to be out there to buy within the US on February 4 at 12 p.m. ET by way of Hole’s webstore. The road will launch in choose pop-ups in Shinjuku, Tokyo, on February 1 and Osaka on February 8. Check out the lineup within the gallery above.
