Either way, it’s the same obsession: take what works, pull it apart and rebuild it with a new angle.
The 9060 X sits right in that very space. While not yet a classic with decades behind it, the silhouette has already become a streetwear favourite. Here, it gets pulled apart and rebuilt for a sharper, future-facing look. Gone is the familiar suede and mesh formula, swapped for sleek, no-sew overlays that cut across the upper with precision.
