Nike SB x Doyenne

Mar 2023 by Route One

Doyenne take their collaborative ventures to new heights with a crossover collection with footwear giants Nike SB.

 

 

Beginning in Glasgow in 2017 as both brand and design studio, Doyenne’s
mission statement blossoms beyond skateboarding with the promotion of equality and inclusivity across all creative mediums embedded at its nucleus; female founded and run, Doyenne offers safe harbour for all, spreading its ethos through cross-pollination with allied companies with a focus on ungendered clothing at its core.
The latest Doyenne collection arrives in conjunction with Nike SB, showcasing a series of products imbued with Doyenne’s progressive philosophy and minimalistic aesthetic. The crossover delivers a complete custom outfit, featuring a back print T-shirt, embroidered pullover hoodie, beach-style trouser, and matching reversible jacket, alongside the crowning achievement: a retooled Blazer Low with gracefully understated Doyenne detailing. 

 


 

Neutral colouration coats the assemblage, with the Nike SB Blazer Low x Doyenne dressed in a soft Coconut Milk / Rattan colourway. The body of the shoe is thoughtfully fashioned from a canvas crafted using pineapple waste, creating an enduring exterior with a gentle aesthetic. This softer look flows through the Swoosh, which has an almost patchwork design; and the outsole, which emulates self-expression through its blend of meandering colours.

 

 

Perhaps the most distinguishing feature of the latest Blazer rendition is its reworked, layered taping and extruded toecap - prominent detailing elevating durability for skateboarding, and suggestive of the importance of change and growth. Convenient heel pulls are planted at the collar, and delicate Doyenne printing finalises the detailing towards the lateral heel. The outcome is a clean and composed, low cut shoe that perfectly encapsulates the collection and its intention, a fitting tribute to Doyenne’s doctrine of equality and empowerment.
