#1 Reebok x Victoria Beckham

We just can’t get enough of the Reebok X Victoria Beckham collaboration. Featuring a variety of athleisure, sportswear and accessories, the collection is multi-functional in that it can be worn as part of your daily wardrobe as well as your workout. Combining streetwear designs with performance-driven apparel, the collection is ideal for everything from ballet classes to marathon training.

#2 adidas Originals x Angel Chen

Number two on our list of the best designer sportswear collaborations is the adidas Originals x Angel Chen collection. The duo have joined forces to combine the traditional sneakers of the former with the futuristic style of the latter. Special makeups of iconic adidas Originals styles including Superstar, Ozweego and Sleek Super make up the collection – each inspired by calligraphy and martial arts.

Our favourite at Coggles? For sure the super versatile Superstar 80S Ac Trainers.

#3  Reebok X Maison Margiela

Number three in our best designer sportswear collaborations is the Reebok X Maison Margiela collaboration. Known for throwing out the rule book, Reebok’s fashion collaborations are iconic in every sense of the word.

Just landed at Coggles, the duo’s ongoing partnership draws on codes evolved by creative director John Galliano. Fusing innovation with nostalgia and fashion with functionality, the collab takes Reebok’s most recognizable designs and cleverly reimagines them through the Margiela lens.

#4 adidas Originals x Wales Bonner

At number four we have adidas Originals x Wales Bonner, which explores the origins of dancehall music in early 1980s Jamaica through designer Grace Wales Bonner’s creative lens. First shown as a digital presentation during Men’s Paris Fashion Week, the collection infuses a number of iconic adidas looks with rich references. The collection places a heightened focus on tailoring and is super high-quality.

#5 PUMA x Maison Kitsuné

PUMA has linked with French-Japanese fashion brand Maison Kitsuné for a stunning collection that merges iconic sportswear with high-end tailoring. Playing with earthy and neutral tones, the collab takes distinctive traits from both brands, presenting both technical sportswear elements and the brand’s Paris-meets-Tokyo aesthetic.

With Maison Kitsuné’s signature fox logos seen throughout the collection, this one is a cop.
