Just Don’s New Pieces For Hummer Partnershi­p

- — THOMAS WALLER

Capping off their yearlong collaborat­ion, renowned Chicago designer Don C has again teamed up with GMC for a limitededi­tion collection of Hummer EV- inspired streetwear styles.

“It’s a massive honor to be part of the [ electric vehicle] revolution with this Just Don x GMC Hummer EV collection,” Don C said. “I’ve been onboard since the prototype stage and been lucky enough to play a part in this supertruck evolution, so there’s been plenty of inspiratio­n gathered along the way. These pieces really strike that balance of functional­ity and luxury, which is what the GMC Hummer EV is all about.”

Featuring four custom pieces — a full-zip jacket, trucker hat, hoodie and T- shirt — Don C’s designs are inspired by the workwear styles he associates with Detroit. The range pays homage to GMC’s latest design: the world’s first all- electric supertruck with zero tailpipe emissions plus a refined off- road experience.

Don C has built a creative empire on top of his streetwear brand, Just Don, collaborat­ing with major luxury and sports brands. Intersecti­ng culture with a luxe point of view, the South Side Chicago designer has made his name combining sports style with high-end streetwear for designs that have serious cultural reach and have been embraced by many A-listers.

This collection forms the latest installmen­t in the creative collaborat­ion, following the “Malibu Series” of short films and the recent “Like Nothing Else” immersive installati­on in Los Angeles, which showcased the supertruck alongside an interactiv­e experience created by Don C, ShowStudio and GMC for attendees including Paris Jackson, Karl-Anthony Towns, Teyana Woods and Jordin Sparks, with the evening rounded off by a performanc­e from artist Big Sean.

The limited-edition collection is available at Justdon.com with prices starting from $ 125.
