May was a big month in terms of new additions for our Streetwear vertical. Coupled with what was a somewhat slow set of release weeks from the streetwear mastheads, Mayās new additions provided a welcomed spark of interest. The majority of new additions mark returns to the series, including collaborations with Travis Scott, a whole lot of Virgil Abloh, and several other āUsual Suspectsā. Scroll down to check out Mayās new streetwear additions:
Travis Scott x Jordan Brand
Technically shock dropped late on April 30th, Travis Scottās collaborative collection with Jordan Brand was added to StockX the next day, May 1st. The initial release, similarly to the Jordans it was dropped alongside, was extremely limited, resulting in a lower number of trades. The official Nike release on the other hand drove the amount sold through StockX through the roof. The collection proved to be one of the hottest releases of the month, with the hoodies hanging out in the top 10 most popular pieces for nearly the entire month of May. Highlights from the collection include the shorts as well as the tees. Shop a selection of the drop below and the entire thing here.
Virgil Abloh
Travis Scott wasnāt the only āUsual Suspectā returning to this series. Virgil Abloh had by far the most items added to StockXās Streetwear Catalog this month with the addition of his entire (yes, entire) Off-White Spring/Summer 2019 menswear collection. Alongside the addition of his collection were several other smaller projects that heās been working on on the side. Of these was the official release of his collaborative āKEEP OFFā Rug with Ikea, a collaborative tee with Serena Williams and Nike, and his āFIGURES OF SPEECHā merch released with the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago. Virgil’s more miscellaneous additions can be found below and the entire Off-White SS19 Collection can be shopped here.
Heron Preston SS19
Off-White wasnāt the only runway brand added to the StockX Streetwear Catalog in May. Heron Prestonās SS19 collection was also added as streetwearās convergence with luxury becomes more and more normalized. The addition includes their collaboration with Carhartt as well as several different colorways of the Heron Preston Jacquard Tape Belt. A selection of the additions can be shopped below and the full collection can be shopped on StockX here.
Thunderbolt Project
Over the last year or so, Hiroshi Fujiwaraās Fragment Design has been collaborating with Pokemon on an ongoing capsule of clothes called the Thunderbolt Project. The collections traditionally feature white or black garments with different Pokemon printed on them. Several items from the coveted release are now available to shop on StockX, including the black Pikachu Keychain, the black tee featuring an adorable black Eevee, and the black hoodie featuring a black Pikachu. A selection of the FRGMT Thunderbolt Project can be shopped below and the whole capsule can be shopped on StockX here.
Fear of God x Nike
We may need to start recognizing Fear Of God x Nike collaborations as a regular occurrence, similar to the likes of Kanye with adidas. After dropping the first Air Fear Of God 1 earlier this year, new colorways and silhouettes have been releasing at a rate that could be considered regular if continued. Alongside the sneakers, there have been consistent apparel drops, of which the most recent has included just two pieces, the Double Hood Hoodie and the Woven Pant. The two items dropped in May can be shopped on StockX here.
Jordan x Patta
Released on Saturday May 18th, the Jordan x Patta collection marked the very first collaborative effort between the two brands. The apparel was released alongside the widely hyped Jordan 7 which is Pattaās Creative Director Vincent van de Waalās favorite sneaker. Highlights from the collection are the shorts and track jacket, both perfect for the upcoming cool summer nights. The entire capsule can be shopped on StockX here.
Girls Donāt Cry HM
Originally dropped exclusively overseas, Human Made and Girls Donāt Cry brought their collaboration stateside, releasing the collaboration at BBCās New York location. The addition of the collaboration marks both Human Made and Girls Donāt Cryās StockX catalog debut. The release featured an assortment of apparel as well as several tote bags, all of which can be shopped on StockX here.
Louis De Guzman’s Pink Elevate Figure
Louis De Guzmanās Elevate figure got a renewal last month, dropping in an all pink colorway that sold out in less than an hour. The addition of this particular Elevate figure marks the second addition of the Chicago Artistās figures to the site. Look out for Louis De Guzman to blow up in the near future and shop his pink elevate figure here.
