G-Shock announced a partnership with Olympic skateboarder Kelvin Hoefler and skate brand Powell Peralta to launch a special edition of the DW-5600 model, the DW-5600KH-1. This collaboration exemplifies a fusion of sport and design, in a watch that has stood the test of time since its launch in 1983.
In a stylized color palette of black and red, the watch features a bracelet printed with the unmistakable skateboard art worn by Kelvin Hoefler, from the legendary shape brand Powell Peralta. When activating the LED backlighting, the logo stands out on the display in red, while Kelvin’s signature, a skateboarding icon, stands out on the back box. This partnership between G-SHOCK, a landmark of excellence and durability, and skateboarding giants, reaffirms the commitment to quality and passion for the sport.
DW-5600KH-1
For true enthusiasts who value authenticity and performance, owning this watch is more than a status symbol – it is a celebration of the essence of skateboarding and recognition of the importance of aligning with brands that, like them, seek always the top.
DW-5600KH-1
Kelvin Hoefler is more than just a name in the world of skateboarding. He is a Brazilian professional recognized for his exceptional skills, especially in street skateboarding. He emerged on Brazilian streets and, in 2011, decided to challenge limits by swapping local asphalt for European competitions. The decision proved to be the right one when he triumphed in three consecutive Skate World Cup events.
Kelvin has participated in numerous skateboarding tournaments around the world. Since then, his career has been a succession of victories – from bringing Damn Am (a global series of amateur skateboarding contests) to Brazil to winning the title at the Kimberley Diamond Cup in South Africa. In 2014, he shocked the all by being the Street League Skate (SLS) newcomer to take a Super Crown.
