Off-White grew out of streetwear and moved into luxury pricing within a few years. Abloh described his aim as adding an intellectual layer to streetwear to make it credible [2]. He became artistic director of Louis Vuitton menswear in 2018 and designed "The Ten" sneaker collection for Nike in 2017 [2]; he died on 28 November 2021 [2].
