i-D Diesel a-z of dance

The A-Z of Dance [VIDEO] // All done in jeans and not a split in sight

Float like an Arabesque, spin like a B-Boy, wobble like a Chicken Noodle Soup… this is the A-Z of Dance, brought to you by i-D and Diesel.

Showing us how freakin’ flexible Diesel’s new Jogg Jeans are, we’re taken through the definitive A-Z of dance moves, from krumping and twerking to rumba and bhangra (although our favourite is probably the ever-so-slightly-camp vogue hands).

You’ll see some familiar faces in the vid, for example the larger-than-life Soul Step team from Rick Owen’s ground-breaking SS14 show; the ever ‘Happy’ Northern Soul street dancer Levanna McLean, and Nicole ‘The Pole’ Williams from Rihanna’s Pour It Up video.

Of course, all of the dancers are wearing Diesel’s Jogg jeans, a cheeky hybrid of denim and jersey allowing for full movement, no matter how twiddly your twerk.

As someone who has SPLIT the seat of their (too-tight) skinny pink jeans doing an overly vigourous lunge once (TRUE SAY), this is particularly important to me. Those clever sorts at Diesel have fused a circular weaving technique with a traditional denim indigo dye so their Jogg Jeans are all denim on the outside, with the 360° stretch and comfort of trackies on the inside. NICE ONE.

If the vid’s got you doing your best dad dancing, Diesel and i-D have put out a casting call for the follow up film, taking place in London at Diesel’s Covent Garden Store on 10th April 2014, 2-4pm with stars from the video on hand doing their best ‘judgy’ faces.

If you can’t make that then get someone to film you doing the lambada/YMCA hands or dancing to Whigfield’s Saturday Night and upload to the social meedyahs using the hashtags #joggjeans and #iDdance. Find out more at diesel.com/joggjeans.
