Off-White pays homage to late designer Virgil Abloh through the new Off-White x Chicago Bulls collection, set to drop in February on Off-White’s official website. This will be the first time Off-White has formed a partnership with a prominent NBA team to curate a collection paying tribute to Abloh’s hometown team and his passion and love for basketball. Read below for more information on the collaboration.
The Off-White x Chicago Bulls collection
The Off-White x Chicago Bulls capsule collection is a vision derived from the partnership of Andrea Grilli, CEO of Off-White, Don C, the Chicago Bulls’ creative strategy and design advisor, and Virgil Abloh’s family. The collaboration leads to curating a capsule collection with exclusive limited-edition items. These items include t-shirts, hoodies, and embellished varsity jackets; all adorn a unique logo featuring a bull in-between the words “Off-White” and “Bulls.”
