11 Fresh to Death Moments from Dubai’s Sole DXB 2016

One of Dubai’s hottest urban lifestyle events returned for its fifth offering last weekend at d3 (Dubai Design District) and it was nothing short of art. We’re talking about Sole DXB! What’s that? It’s Dubai’s biggest streetwear event that’s all about celebrating street culture with a distinctively Middle Eastern twist.

 

Sole DXB brings together a spectrum of creatives and brands to hosting key music, basketball, streetwear, and art figures. When it first started back, it was all about the sneakers, but it has since expanded to celebrate all aspects of hip-hop culture. This year’s theme was “City of Gold,” and golden it was. Here are some of our favorite moments from that weekend.
