PROJECT RUNWAY
WINNER
Nike Project Forward competition required us to design, pattern, and sew our projects using at least 75% Forward Fabric.
This design is a Pickleball-inspired jacket and skirt with features to enhance both performance and style.
The jacket is patterned with articulated sleeves for optimal swing and shoulder gussets for maximum mobility. The center front zipper is bonded for minimal visual disruption and the Forward Fabric was turned inside out for the sunrise chevron design detail.
One of the unique features of the jacket is the back pocket, which is perfectly sized to hold a pickleball paddle. Additionally, the skirt can be buckled or transformed into a pickleball bag to carry your paddle and balls.
The look was sent to Paris Fashion week and made a debut on athletes and influencers on social media.
