feature: tbt to boas kristjansson’s dystopian sportswear collection

In 2010, long before Kanye West was designing over-sized, dystopian-inspired athletic garments, occasional Icelandic designer, Boas Kristjansson (aka 8045), served up analogous, split-commentary, and monochromatic color palettes for his futuristic garb. In an unusual split from his grey scale designs, Kristjansson’s produced a collection that captured warmth and light in an organic way that almost made you want to go do something active.
