Places+Faces, StockX and the Design Museum launch collaborative merch collection

Places+Faces create merch for Sneakers Unboxed: Studio to Street, an exhibition currently on at The Design Museum in collaboration with buying and selling platform StockX.

The exhibition explores the phenomenon of sneaker culture, from the design process and impactful collaborations, to the resale market and the role of young people in making certain sneakers into icons that are driving a billion dollar industry.

“The exhibition also gives behind the scenes insight into new upcycling and sustainable design practices, unseen prototypes predicting the future of performance design, and streetwear and fashion collaborations that changed the face of the industry.” said Ligaya Salazar, Curator of Sneakers Unboxed exhibition.

Places+Faces capture the merch in a campaign featuring selected sneakers from the exhibition catalogue including Nike Air Rubber Dunk, Off-White UNC, Nike Air Max 95, OG Neon, and Nike SB Dunk Low Atmos Elephant.

The Sneakers Unboxed merch is available now at stockx.com.

Sneakers Unboxed: Studio to Street is open at the Design Museum until 24 October 2021. Tickets can be purchased here.
