55DSL Fall Winter 08/09 Collection: Low Noise - High Quality

55DSL Fall Winter 08/09 Collection

If there’s one word that sums up the 55DSL attitude, it is “fun”. Created in 1994 as an experimental spin-off from Diesel, the brand rapidly established its own exuberant identity. The son of Diesel founder Renzo Rosso, Andrea Rosso is the creative director of 55DSL. He turned 55DSL into one of the world’s most high-profile active stretwear companies. Now a company in its own right, it both complements and defies its parent. The line was originally inspired by radical sports – snow, surf and skate – and these remain anchored in its DNA. But as the brand grew, it embraced the fusion of sport and urban culture that is the foundation of today’s street style. Like its core 18-to-30-year-old customers, 55DSL is at home on a mountainside or in Manhattan; it moves effortlessly between skate-park and nightclub.
