ADIDAS HONORS GARY WARNETT WITH THE 'GWAR-TEX' COLLECTION
Gary was a thought leader in the space that we today call “street fashion.” More than most,
he connected moments of the past—both big and small —to current trends, products and movements, always ensuring that readers and fans understood just why things matter. His global view is not simply bottlenecked as sneaker culture or streetwear. Rather, he looked at the two as inputs into a much stronger conversation that stretched into music, the arts, and pop culture. We are less without his voice and writing, but continue to strive to push things forward in his spirit.
Today on the anniversary of his passing, adidas honors the legacy of Gary Warnett with a special friends-and-family release. Three items were developed in honor of Gary.
The adidas "Sqaumish" Waterproof jacket is highlighted as one of Gary's favorite item within apparel. The artwork labels are finished with Gary's famous GWARIZM logo and mark—itself a play on the logo of workwear brand Ben Davis and the Moomin comic characters.
