Streetwear can go slightly over the top these days, but it’s straightforward and versatile items like utility pants and t-shirts that built the foundations of the movement we see today. Dockers are experts at casual wear, and their latest campaign, set in the streets of Berlin, takes us back to the basics of streetwear style and mentality. It’s all about sharing moments of inner city life, hanging out in your favorite spots, and connecting with your mates.

Dockers’ soft and simple basics deliver failsafe looks that never go out of style. Sweatshirts and casual button-ups have always been their forte, but it's their iconic chinos that are an absolute streetwear staple, especially in the skate scene — now, they are set to release an exclusive Dockers x Zalando collection that captures effortless style for everyday city life.

Presenting a head-to-toe assortment of gender-neutral options, the collection has everything from relaxed fit tees, sweatshirts, and hoodies to classic chinos and cargo pants. All the things you’d expect to see on a skater whilst casually dodging cars or kickflipping in a grungy skatepark. You’ll find the Dockers logo on many items in that collegiate print that thrifters go crazy for, infusing the pieces with a casual retro feel.

The whole collection is completely interchangeable, so you can mix and match all year round and transition smoothly between workwear and streetwear. Dress the look up by opting for tighter-fitting chinos, a button-up, and a bandana necktie, or go for a relaxed fit with everything oversized.

Who else could show off this collaboration better than a group of young skaters? Glitterz is a skateboarding collective of diverse individuals from Berlin, Amsterdam, and Paris who love to meet up across Europe.  Seeing them hang out around Berlin in the campaign, it’s easy to get impressed by their chemistry, casual looks, and a realness that is never over-styled. Their collective acceptance and support of each other aligns with Dockers’ aim to provide clothing that offers physical comfort and the freedom to dress however you want.

Whether you're a skater, a fashion enthusiast, or just an all-round chill person, the Dockers x Zalando collection has to join your essentials list this year.
