The "MCA" is the latest shoe release for Off-White x Nike, this time coming in coordination with Virgil Abloh's "career retrospective" at Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago. But at this point, Adam and Diego wonder if he's pushed that relationship to the limit and if they'll stop making shoes together soon or if there's still more to come? They discuss the past, present, and future of the relationship between the two brands.
The most popular example probably being the Balenciaga Triple S and it's replication with the Dad Shoe style among smaller brands, "Fast Fashion" happens when trends in the scene are taken and duplicated at lower price points (and therefore with cheaper materials) for retailers like H&M or Zara to make a quick buck. Adam and Diego talk about it and the positive and negative aspects to it.
