Nike x Union LA Cortez

Product/Graphic Pattern Design

Collaboration.

“We are the OG inventors
Most of our inventions are not recorded
We haven’t been credited for most of our sh*t
It’s the way we style our hair, our clothes, our make up.
This has made us who we are, who we want to be and what we stand for.
We are not stereotypes.
We are not victims
We love ourselves
Adorn ourselves
It might be jewelry
Clothing
Shoes
But what ever it is
This is US.
Introducing the Union x Nike Un-Cortez collection.”
