Nike joins forces with denim legend. Hip-hop and vintage inspiration
We like it when two famous brands collaborate to combine the most characteristic elements of their styles. Levi's and Nike? We'll take it blindly!
A joint collection by Levi's and Nike can only mean one thing: iconic denim has been married to sporty and streetwear casualness . On paper, it looks like a perfect plan!
The collection includes oversized, faded-looking baggy jeans , as well as a refreshed Type II Trucker jacket. Both designs are inspired by the '90s , hip-hop , and old-school skate style, so it's easy to guess that I'm sold.

The jacket retains its original style, but has been enhanced with functional pockets , a small Nike logo on the chest and subtle, raw finishes . The real highlight, however, is the engraved Nike logo on the back, which is a strong but not flashy accent.

The shoes will be available in three colors:
- Obsidian
- Light Orewood Brown
- Black

Classic, high-quality denim and Levi's characteristic white chain stitching meet here with the lightness and feistiness of streetwear and... Well, I would wear it.
The atmosphere is additionally heated by the campaign promoting the collection, in which rapper Larry June , basketball player Paige Bueckers , football player Keon Coleman and designer Daniel Buezo were invited.
