So, Virgil, work your magic on our sweet, beloved 80. X Mirage is the AirPlay server to help you maker iPhone iPad iPod screen mirror to computer (macOS High Sierra and Windows 10 supported). And, also like Nike shoes, the 80 helps people travel from point A to point B. Like Nike shoes, people line up in anticipation for the 80. The two are more similar than you’d think. That line of Nike sneakers you deconstructed last year are amazing (please send us a pair, “we” wear a size 12.) We think you could take the same design elements from those shoes, like a focus on bold lettering and strong lines, and apply it to the 80. It’s sleek, sexy and on time 80 percent of the time – and we think it deserves to stand out. This is not a call for you to redesign the entire fleet of buses in Madison, but only the coolest, most chill bus on campus: the 80. (Photoillustration)Īlthough players may complain that they can’t keep track of how many yards they have until a first down and announcers will find it difficult to do play-by-play commentary, this is no more than a rehash of the age-old fashion dichotomy between style and function. Virgil, don’t listen to the naysayers who say this would destroy the sport of football. Pairing Off-White’s streetwear bona fides with Camp Randall’s legendary field would be a collab for the ages. But we can also all agree that those horizontal yard lines are straight out of 1869 – and not in a good way.īut rotate the lines diagonally in the vein of Off-White’s iconic horizontal spray-painted lines, and now we’re talking. It’s historic, impressive and the home of so many great sports memories. Honestly love the lore of all the characters and the game itself. Just a lil fluff, smut, lore and all other craziness crashing down into the world of Apex Legends. So, Virgil, kindly consider returning home to your alma mater for these three Virgil Abloh x UW collabs. MiragexWraith Apex Legends by Caringlittlesmolbean. And, listen, we know you’re busy in Paris pushing the boundaries of haute couture, launching art exhibits with Takashi Murakami and DJing in whatever spare time you have left, but even you said the your secret to success is “never sleep.” It’s been three years, and in that time you’ve designed, remixed and deconstructed everything from Nike sneakers to Ikea rugs. In October 2015, Off-White x UW t-shirts went on sale, with proceeds going to the Great People Scholarship.īut I think we can agree it’s time for another collab, Virgil. Before Virgil Abloh achieved legend status in the high-end fashion world as Kanye West’s creative director, designer for his brand Off-White, and most recently the artistic director of Louis Vuitton’s menswear collection, he was a student at UW–Madison.Īlthough he studied engineering, he said in an interview with the New York Times that it was the humanities classes that “ultimately started me on this path of thinking about creativity in a much more cultural context - not designing for design’s sake, but connecting design to the rhythm of what’s happening in the world.”Ībloh has blessed us with his iconic take on streetwear once before.
