Will Alexander Wang for H&M Be Athletic Equipment?
LatestAlexander Wang’s collaboration with H&M isn’t set to launch until November, but the designer and the fast-fashion retail chain have both posted teaser shots on their respective Instagram accounts that indicate the highly-anticipated line might actually be athletic equipment and workout gear.
The previews posted by Wang and H&M feature a boxing gloves keychain and what appears to be a yoga mat embossed with Wang’s name. Wang designed a yoga mat for his own line earlier this year, so it’s familiar territory for him (hopefully H&M’s version will be a lot cheaper than the $175 his original mat was selling for.)
The collaboration—in stores November 6—was originally announced on H&M’s Instagram back in April with a video featuring a countdown on a basketball court clock. So given the previews we’ve seen so far, is this going to be all workout gear and sports equipment?
