Detailed Look at the Entire CLOT x fragment design Collection
Including a preview of the hidden layer found on the duo’s Nike Dunk Low collaboration plus a glimpse at co-created apparel.
Two kings of collaboration — Edison Chen and Hiroshi Fujiwara — are teaming up once again for not only a new take on the Nike Dunk Low, but a complementary apparel range as well via their labels: CLOT and fragment design. Previously, early looks at both the Dunks and clothing had surfaced via early pairs, official imagery and teasers from the duo. Now, the much-anticipated collection has been presented with a complete breakdown of what’s to come and its release information.
The CLOT x fragment design x Nike Dunk Low revisits CLOT’s silk-themed Nike Air Force 1 Low from 2018 — a shoe that Fujiwara shared is his favorite from CLOT in its twenty years of collaborations. This “Silk Royale” pattern makes a return across the Dunk’s upper in a striking white that matches the opaque sole unit. From there, CLOT returns to its love for pandas with the inclusion of black hits at the tongue, eyestay and branding. Another point of homage arrives with its special tear-away layers. This technique has been utilized in releases dating back to the original 2009 “1WORLD” collaboration on the Nike Air Force 1 Low and appears again to unveil black branding hits from the trio at the lateral and black leather at the Swooshes. Alternate laces in blue are joined by a special box bearing the “Silk Royale” theme to round out this highly-detailed release.
Supporting the kicks, two hoodies and two t-shirts have been assembled by the duo. A black and white hoodie leads the way with co-branding scattered across the front and back, including a red CLOT20 tag that is affixed to each of the four garments. A black hoodie chimes in with a small, tonal CLOT x fragment design logo at the chest and a panda in the shape of a “C” appearing to write out “CLOT” at the back. Both tees utilize these designs, flipping the placement from front to back and vice versa while appearing in white and black colorways to complete the range.
For those looking forward to the collection’s release, it is currently scheduled to release on May 19 via JUICE stores across the world. A special pop-up in Tokyo is set to be announced alongside an expected wider release of the shoes at a later date. Prices begin at $87 USD for the tees and go up to $150 USD and $176 USD for the shoes and hoodies respectively.
