Hollywood actor and amateur skateboarder, Jack Dylan Grazer fronts our Spring/Summer 2020 Olympic Issue shot by Kapturing in 2028 Olympic host city of Los Angeles. While 16-year-old Grazer empowers kids to go out and claim their own piece to skate on, the Olympics can also connect to fond childhood memories.  We also look at it for inspiration and a call for togetherness. 

Participation in sports has been greatly limited and the future has been up in the air much like fashion, both have been great escapes, but now reality is kicking in. People are recycling more, gaining scruples, and ultimately opting for a healthier and more ethical lifestyle. Connection between streetwear and sports culture has been undeniable. Now we are given one more year as the 2020 Tokyo Olympics have been postponed by a full year due to the Covid-19 pandemic, can fashion and sports make the appropriate changes to ensure that health and the environment come first?

“I have never had a sedentary lifestyle….There was a special connection between sport and nature. It was part of my physical and mental health.” Adriano Batista, Editor in Chief  “What is certain is that there must be a new approach to the current market and –  above all –  an approach to change, so that we can conserve our planet and run freely again. Sport depends on a healthy environment, so that it can be practiced and at the same time can contribute to healing that same environment. And it is this that will make us win the gold medal.”

Olympic legends Michael Johnson and Li Ning shed some gold light on us along with interviews with designers Matthew Williams, Stéphane Ashpool, Andreas Schmidl, and Josef Lazo of Lazoschmidl and essay by Harris Reed.

While the Olympics offers up soft patriotism, perhaps that will stay in the past, as solidarity is at the forefront and we are all in it together. We hope this Olympic Issue will boost your morale in the current void.

Many thanks to our contributing Photographers: Amar, Arne Grugel, Asaf Einy, David Ansah, Guillaume Plas, Kapturing, Sebastien Pielles, Simon, Tom Kneller, and Valentin Fabre.
