Dockers launches collection with BMX Champion Matthias Dandois
Dockers launched this week a capsule collection with nine-time flatland BMX World Champion
Dubbed ‘Dockers x Dandois’, the eight-piece capsule is characterized by utility and craftsmanship, along with unique design details such as visible linings, embroidery, and a specially-designed logo inspired by one of Dandois’ tattoos.
In line with Dandois’ passion for protecting the planet, all pieces are made with recycled fibers and also implements eco-friendly screen printing practices. The collection features a pull-on pant, cut-off shorts, deck jacket, mock-neck sweatshirt and two varieties of T-shirts including a relaxed fit graphic tee and a sleeveless tee.
“I was thrilled to travel to San Francisco and work hand in hand with Dockers on this project – it was incredible,” said Dandois, who began his BMX career in 2008. “I don’t know how to draw, but we sat and spoke about inspirations, fabrics, colors, styles, designs…and together I think we developed a really cool capsule.”
As an ambassador for Dockers Europe and a member of the ‘Dockers Crew’ since 2022, Dandois is no stranger to the brand, which is part of the Levi Strauss group.
“Matthias is incredibly creative and inspiring,” added Nic Rendic, global head of design for Dockers. “It was awesome to work with him on reinterpreting some of our timeless classics through the lens of vintage BMX street culture, especially since he was already wearing Dockers back in the day.”
