The best collaborations between NASA and streetwear brands All the times streetwear was inspired by the world's most famous Space Agency
Of all american government agencies, NASA is the one that has captured the public's imagination over the years, becoming the backdrop for countless series, films and novels. The numerous collaborations between NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) and the streetwear brands that have taken place over the years demonstrate how the desire to explore the stars and space is still present and very felt in the new generations.
The possibility of going into space has always represented for men something utopian, lived as a dream that goes beyond differences in gender, race and social status and making them null when compared to the infinity of the sky, of the universe. A whole generation is experiencing this increasingly intense relationship between the space program and the world of fashion. The desire for escapism and the legend that revolves around space missions have been relevant insights for many streetwear brands and turn NASA into a great brand with which to collaborate as well as a universe from which to draw graphic, historical and even new materials and constructions for the realization of their products.
