FUTURA 'DOMESTIQ' JERSEY

Legendary artist and long-time urban cyclist, Futura was born in New York in 1955 and started painting in the early ’70s when the genre of graffti – as a formal artistic canon - was yet to be coined. He soon became a game changer, introducing abstractionism in graffti art, beyond the then prevailing letter based style. In 1982 he joined The Clash for the Combat Rock tour and created artwork for them. By the late ’80s he had become a leading light in New York's downtown gallery golden age, mixing with the likes of Keith Haring, Jean-Michel Basquiat and Kenny Scharf. Since the ’60s his passion for steel-made human-powered machines has been growing steadily. “My love for cycling began when I was a child. In the late ‘80s I was a bike messenger in New York City riding on a fixed frame. Over the following decades, and after logging thousands of miles, I have consistently followed the grand tours, and have forever been a fan of this passionate sport. The opportunity to create a kit for CINELLI is beyond a dream come true. It’s a gift from God”. In 1997 McGurr started his own design studio, Futura Laboratories, collaborating with such brands as Nike, Uniqlo, Supreme and Levi’s. This Collection is studio’s latest creation.
