Overkill

Overkill started life in 1992 as a Berlin graffiti magazine before opening its first shop in Kreuzberg in September 2003, a modest 60 square metre space for graffiti supplies, sneakers and streetwear that was the first of its kind in the neighbourhood. Steady growth led to a full expansion in 2007-2008, and the business has since grown to three shops.

The edit still carries that graffiti-scene DNA alongside serious sneaker credentials, running from adidas Originals lines like EQUIPMENT, ZX and SPZL through to Nike, Puma and outdoor-leaning names such as Salomon and Merrell. Streetwear comes via labels including Alpha Industries, Rassvet, Born X Raised, Pal Sporting Goods and Arte Antwerp, with a gorpcore streak running through the outdoor picks and heritage sportswear sitting comfortably next to it.
