This month Etnies launched its footwear and apparel collaboration with pro skateboarder and Japanese tattoo artist, Toshikazu Nozaka, at retailer Beams Harajuku store in Japan. The collaboration kick-off art show debuted Nozakas etnies collection at this Beams store, marking the first time etnies has had a merchandised collection available with Beams. During the art show, fans and shoppers were invited to meet Nozaka and etnies pro skateboarders Toru Yoshida and TANI, view Nozakas original artwork and get the first chance to see and purchase the etnies x Nozaka collection.
