Chinese sports goods giant Ni-Ling has invited some of your favorite artists to participate in their “Say No To Limits” campaign. With the Olympic games coming up in Beijing in 2008, the brand has already started now celebrating the occasion.
Participating artist are Kuntzel & Deygas, Kaws, Delta, James Jarvis, Mr. André and Hidekichi Shigemoto. Each artist created a track jacket as well as a t-shirt. The exhibition of the pieces just recently took place in Beijing and for the occasion Ni-Ling had invited many more artists from around the world to also include their artwork on t-shirts. The main artists get the trackjacket and many others get to contribute only t-shirts.
All in all a nice project and the releases are certainly something to look out for. On the “Say No To Limits” website there is also a countdown to the Olympic games.
Check out the trackjackets and many more artworks created for this initiative after the jump.

The next Olympic Games will be taking place in Beijing. For the occasion artist Kaws teamed up with Chinese sports goods company Li Ning. Li Ning is actually a famous Chinese sportsman, that won many medal himself at Olympic games and after he ended his sports career founded the Li Ning company. Li Ning is in China more popular than Nike and Adidas, also due to endorsement contracts with the likes of Shaquille O’Neal and Damon Jones.
This Kaws collaboration will be dropping some time next year around the Olympic Games. The trackjacket comes in white with the Olympic rings replaced by Kaws’s iconic crosses. We expect more to come out of this collaboration. Via Kidulty.
