Kickit Market arrives in Bologna for the first time

During 2021, secondhand and resell have revolutionized the way of buying, researching and consuming fashion: archival research and sustainability have become the main directions of an expanding market that started from the world of sneakers. A whole mission that has found new impetus thanks to events such as Kickit, resell market event born in Rome in 2017 and then became a hub of the latest trends that also involved emerging brands, workshops, talks, DJs and international artists. This year the event will move to the main Italian locations, arriving, after the November edition in Milan, in Bologna for the first time ever next Sunday, December 19, at the central track of DumBO.

The first Bolognese edition of Kickit will include, in addition to the actual market, with exhibitions and private sellers, also a street basketball tournament organized together with Space 23 supported by "Not in my House" which will take place in an outdoor field with the winner who will win a € 300 voucher to spend from Space 23; to fill the part of street art and live painting there will be the rialto18 collective with the artist ToY bOy, while the digital culture will see the illustrations of the Turin artist Fuuurachi printed. But there will also be a playstation area and, in honor of Virgil Abloh, an exhibition of sneaker magazines, campaigns and fashion shows that will tell his career. A workshop was also organized by the Apulian customizer Davide Di Lernia in collaboration with the shoe cleaning brand Shoemagic and with Enterprise Japan who will also give-away during the event.

In addition, this year Kickit will produce an exclusive merch capsule with a graphic that mentions "BELLA BOLO" designed by the artistic director of the event, Alessio Pomioli, to celebrate the first Romagna stage of the event that will include a t-shirt, a crewneck sweatshirt and a hoodie.
