Nike Sportswear celebrates Zlatan’s glorious career, acknowledging his achievements to date by designing him a bespoke NSW Destroyer Jacket. The jacket is both a symbol of Zlatan Ibrahimovic's past achievements and those to come. His hunger for success like every true athlete will never diminish; there are always more games to win and titles to take. On the pitch Zlatan plays with his own unique style and with a single-minded goal; to be the best.
”I try to have my own style both on and off the pitch, to get a jacket this unique was very unexpected and exciting. I have worked hard to earn my success and this jacket reflects that, but this is simply a moment in time, there’s plenty still to accomplish.” said Zlatan Ibrahimović.
With this unique bespoke Destroyer Jacket, Nike Sportswear celebrate not only Zlatan, but also the heritage of the varsity jacket.On a standard varsity jacket, letters and patches would be sewn on to tell the world about the achievements of the athlete wearing it. But when it came to this jacket it was decided to use some of Zlatan’s tattoos and mirror these on the destroyer jackets exterior. To make it authentic Nike Sportswear involved Zlatan’s tattoo artist Christian Wagner to guide them and fashion designer Julia Hederus to help translate his tattoos onto the fabric of the jacket.
Tuesday morning we had a lovely surprise at the office. Sinterklaas had surprised Spice PR with a visit!!Everybody got a really cool American Apparel Nail polish and of course somedelicious ‘pepernoten’. Like every Tuesday morning we start the day with our weekly meeting. On Wednesday Julie and I had a Replay event in George W.P.A. During the event Nikkie Plessen was presented as the newest ambassador for Replay. The food (as always) was great! Back at the office I had to send out the press release about Nikkie for Replay. I was asked by one of my best friends Liza to join here to a benefit for the Health E Foundation. After the dinner you could place your bids on some amazing prices but this one was my favourite. Unfortunately I went home empty handed but I had a great night!
