WHAT IS THE COTTWEILER BRAND BEST KNOWN FOR?

As seen on the rapper Skepta, a tracksuit aficionado, the brand’s innovative work with tracksuits has perhaps given Cottweiler the most mainstream publicity. They’ve helped bring tracksuits back into the fold in contemporary fashion through choice tailoring and material selection, thereby elevating a classic piece of athleticwear into high-fashion. Aside from their tracksuits, however, the Cottweiler is known for their concept-driven collections, presentations, and shows—taking a narrow idea steeped in history and blowing it up into one cohesive vision for their clothing.

WHEN HAVE COTTWEILER AND REEBOK COLLABORATED?

Cottweiler and Reebok first collaborated at Pitti Uomo in January 2017, coming up with quilted jackets, knitwear, athletic outerwear. They combined forces again spring/summer 2018, adding UV protective layers and packable features to their silhouettes. Their second collaboration included hoodies, track pants, t-shirts, ponchos, shorts, footwear, and accessories.
