Provost G6 meets art – Jess Mudgett’s Western-inspired collab adds style to Collin’s tech shoe
Emerica’s collaboration with artist Jess Mudgett brings a bold, Western-inspired twist to Collin Provost’s signature shoe, the Provost G6. Known for his striking desert and cowboy themes, Jess Mudgett injects his distinctive aesthetic into this limited-edition capsule, blending art with performance seamlessly. As a close friend of Collin’s, Jess’s artwork pays tribute to their shared history while offering a fresh look for an already proven skate shoe.
Performance That Stands Up to Hard Skating
At its core, the Provost G6 x Jess Mudgett maintains all the technical features that make Collin’s shoe a powerhouse: double-wrapped vulcanized construction, Desert Grip tread, G6 foam insoles, and reinforced ollie panels. These features ensure that, like the standard Provost G6, this shoe can handle everything from ledges to big gaps and transition riding. The canvas upper is durable enough for skating, breaking in quickly while holding up over time, and offers that traditional vulc feel that’s responsive and flexible.
A Unique Western Touch
The standout feature of the Provost G6 x Jess Mudgett is the collaboration’s custom look. The upper is crafted from sturdy canvas in a warm, earthy clay color that reflects the Western desert vibe central to Jess’s style. Subtle artistic touches make this shoe one-of-a-kind: printed insoles feature Jess’s distinctive artwork, while small graphic accents on the tongue and heel add personality without overpowering the shoe’s clean design. It’s a refined, understated aesthetic – a wearable piece of art that tells a story with every detail.
Functional and Stylish
Even with the artwork, the Provost G6 x Jess Mudgett remains a skate-ready shoe. The design incorporates Lycra tongue straps and the Heel Halo system, ensuring a snug, secure fit for better flicks and foot lockdown. Inside, the G6 foam insoles provide the cushioning needed to take on big sets and long sessions. The canvas upper may even break in quicker than suede, allowing for a comfortable fit right out of the box while still offering durability.
For Those Who Appreciate Art and Skate Culture
This limited edition is a chance to own a piece of art that doesn’t just look good – it skates hard too. The Provost G6 x Jess Mudgett proves that you can express your personal style while still keeping performance at the forefront. Whether you’re a fan of Collin’s skating or Jess’s art, this shoe blends both worlds into a unique and functional piece of skate history.
