Nike developed the X2 with national federations, creative partners and Social & Community Impact partners. Each capsule connects an ethnic group with a local creative voice and community organization. Patta represents the Netherlands and Favela Street acts as a community partner. Street football figure Roxane Hehakaija Perremuto founded Favela Street.
Pata draws from the many cultural backgrounds that shape Dutch football. Orange leads the collection as the defining color of Oranje and a reference to trust, memory and shared identity. Suriname symbols have the same weight. Patta uses the Ala Kondre necklace pattern on the pre-match top and Anthem jacket, then combines it with Dutch iconography. The necklace traditionally represents protection, identity and belonging. The pre-match top also features the Favela Street logo.
The graphics are linked to the backgrounds of the KNVB players. Patta combines the State Lion with charms associated with their origins, creating a print for the Dri-FIT Academy Pro Short Sleeve Football Top. Nike offers the slim, sweat-wicking design in men’s, women’s and kids’ versions. Patches identify partnership and Oranje.
The Dri-FIT Academy Anthem Men’s Jacket uses the same graphic language in a relaxed, lightweight woven shape. A black Tech Fleece Full-Zip Windrunner Hoodie combines Patta’s States Lion interpretation with branded patches and embroidery. Matching Tech Fleece Joggers continue the design. Orange and white Everyday Essentials Crew Socks complete the outfit. Patta’s embroidery treatment on Tech Fleece introduces a technique the partners describe as a first.
The Cryoshot Mercurial Vapor R9 provides the footwear element. Patta selected the R9 from Nike’s football archive and adapted the original synthetic leather design with Dutch colours. A detachable fold-over tongue adds another reference to older football boots. Nike has nailed clean outsoles, transforming the classic boot shape into footwear for everyday street wear.
For Patta, the project offers her first opportunity to interpret the Dutch national team through her own cultural perspective. Founders Edson Sabajo and Guillaume Schmidt share Suriname roots, which inform the collection and campaign. Creative director Vincent Van De Waal compares the Surinamese brass band in the film to Patta’s “drums of joy” marching into battle.
The campaign brings together friends, family, community members and football personalities from different generations of Patta. Paul Geusebroek and Vincent Van De Waal directed the film. The Amsterdam production company produced it 100%. The opening image shows Virgil van Dijk wearing the Dutch flag and introduces repeated Surinamese-Netherlands references.
Edgar Davies adds a link to an earlier footballing generation and Pata’s own circle. Luciano Valente represents emerging talent and reflects Patta’s belief that “youth is the truth”. A young local ‘keie-uppie’ record holder closes the film with advanced skill for his age, offering a final insight into the future of Dutch football. A Surinamese brass band guides each transition as the visual tone shifts between darker scenes and brighter, upbeat passages.
Oranje by Patta releases via Pattaxnike.com and Patta Chapters on June 12th. Dover Street Market follows on June 13. SNKRS and select partner Nike stores release the collection on June 16.
