Reebok MYT








Helping Reebok inspire & create a new, younger and outspoken lifestyle line.

Project done at
This Memento


To get a better understanding of the streetwear and lifestyle culture in Liverpool I followed 4 consumers for 6 months and dug deep into their city; Liverpool.

These 4 bold, creative and expressive people provided us with insight to help create, inspire and feed the Spring Summer 2021 collection for a new younger line with more attitude from Reebok called Meet You There (MYT).
This helped the designers get a better understanding of who they are targeting, what they should design and how the city of Liverpool is developing.
