K-Swiss: You Gotta Know Your Classics

For 20 years, between 1966 and 1986, Californian shoe brand K-Swiss only sold one model of shoe, the Classic. To celebrate over 40 years of the shoe, K-Swiss have decided to tell the story of the shoe, which has quietly and subtly evolved over time, through the medium of graphic design. K-Swiss gathered up some of the best designers in the world and commissioned 8 posters, of which 400 will be printed of each, creating a collectors item for hardcore K-Swiss fans and sneakerfreaks everywhere. The artists involved are Mario Lombardo, Value & Service, Cobbenhagen & Hendriksen, Non-Format, Grand People, Sulki & Min, Mark Owens / Life Of The Mind and Fabian Jenny and you can check out all the posters and an overview after the jump.
