Nike Collab Series 2009 Parra x Cassette Playa Varsity Jackets



This is the end product of Nike's collaboration with Dutch artist Piet Parra of Rockwell & LeLe fame... the Nike x Parra Varsity Jacket. The varsity jacket which features a maroon wool body, along with matching maroon leather sleeves, will form part of the capsule collection of jackets and tees, all designed by Parra to match the footwear. The varisity jacket also features many of Parra's decorated facets, which the artist is famously known for. This includes a unique slogan "THE LOVELY UNDERACHIEVING LONERS," which can also be found on the bomber jackets and t-shirts. As well as striking patches of Parra's old designs.



The second Nike varsity jacket is...



Nike x Cassette Playa Varsity Jacket in buzz teal/black/white. Similar to the Parra collaboration, Nike asked London's very own Carri Munden aka Cassette Playa to come up with a footwear (Dunk Hi Premium) and a capsule collection of jackets and tees to match the footwear. The jacket features buzz teal wool body, along with black leather left sleeve and white leather right sleeve. The jacket is also tastefully embellished with Carri’s trademark colorful digital artwork patches just like the Parra design.



Both Varsity Jacket are awaiting release dates for London purchases, but should set you guys back atleast £80.
