Bring streetwise anime style to your stitching with this Nike Swoosh Draken Tokuo design, built around a sharp male portrait laid over the swoosh. The blond hair, side braid, undercut, forehead tattoo and single earring give it a recognisable tough, modern look that will land well with anime fans who like their gear a little harder-edged. With seven thread colours and strong contrasts of blond, black, beige, white and orange, it has plenty of definition without looking fussy.
Because it is an open, lightly stitched design, it suits garments that need impact without a heavy, boardy finish, such as sweatshirt backs, hoodie fronts, denim jackets and twill overshirts. The portrait reads clearly across the size range, so it works as a smaller chest placement or a larger feature on the back. It will look especially good on black, stone, tan or cream fabric, where the hair and face tones can stand out cleanly against the background.
