Lost Art x Nike Skate Zine: The Ultimate Collaboration ????

Lost Art x Nike Skate Zine, an awe-inspiring project that shows the true potential of skate zine printing, breaks all barriers of creativity and originality. ???? This case study delves into how Ex Why Zed, a leading zine printing company, transformed the vision of Lost Art and Nike into a physical medium that resonates with the soul of skateboarding culture.

How Lost Art x Nike Embraced Zine Printing UK

Fuelled by their passion for skateboarding, Lost Art joined hands with Nike to create a unique skate zine, echoing the authenticity and raw energy of the skateboard scene. This innovative digital printing project featured striking black and white photographs, gritty graphics, and edgy street-style elements, which mirrored the urban skating experience.

With a robust cover printed onto 200gsm Uncoated and 72 pages of engaging content printed onto 100gsm Uncoated, the A4 size zine offered a tactile reading experience. The pages, trimmed, collated, and wire-stitched, further amplified the zine’s authentic feel.

Capture a New Audience

Nike Skateboard showed how printing can significantly enhance your brand and attract a younger, more diverse audience by providing a tactile, personalised, and intimate connection with your message. As a resurgent art form, zines encapsulate a DIY ethos that appeals to the creative, independent spirit of today’s youth, showcasing originality and authenticity. Incorporating zines into your brand strategy can invigorate your content marketing, presenting your brand’s story, values, and products in a unique, engaging format. Zines can also facilitate a dynamic, two-way relationship with your audience by inviting contributions, fostering a sense of community and loyalty. By tapping into the nostalgia of print and marrying it with contemporary themes and design aesthetics, zine printing can give your brand a distinct, resonant edge in the saturated digital age, thus attracting the vibrant, zine-savvy demographic.

Striding towards Innovation in Skate Zine Printing

For fans asking, “how much does it cost to print a zine?”, this zine stands as a testament to the value of quality zine printing UK. Every page, every image, every word was thoughtfully curated, striking a perfect balance between design and information. Check out the exciting journey of this zine project here.

Ex Why Zed makes self publishing a truly pleasurable experience!
Brilliant communication from start to finish. Mike had endless patience for the many questions we asked. The guides provided were easy to follow and super helpful (the video guides are a must watch too). Our order of hardback illustrated children's books was delivered expertly packaged and on time. As for the finished product itself - stunning - a real joy to finally hold, beautifully made and perfectly printed! We couldn't have asked for more. Well, we did - we instantly placed an order for paperback children's colouring books too, which we are equally as happy with. Look forward to working with Ex Why Zed again in the future.
