DIZYGOTIC presents a new release in collaboration with Dee & Ricky—the iconic New York design duo celebrated for their Lego-inspired creations that have become staples in both fashion and pop culture. Their work spans collaborations with global brands and fashion houses, and has been worn by high-profile artists, including Questlove.
-
This project, creatively led by Dee, explores the concept of contrast through the theme of Solid vs Pixelation. It serves as a tribute to the Dee & Ricky legacy—showing how things can look alike, yet still be different. The mismatched design also nods to their dynamic as twin artists from Staten Island: Dee’s detail-driven precision contrasts with Ricky’s freer, more unconventional spirit, creating a dialogue about identity, duality, and expression.
-
The mismatched sneaker design captures this idea. One shoe features precise, high-resolution graphics and embroidery. The other embraces pixelation, using blurred details and visual distortion to create a more abstract expression. Together, the pair forms a conversation about identity, duality, and the space between clarity and concept.
-
Dee & Ricky and DIZYGOTIC will celebrate the release with a launch party, featuring a showcase of their past work, at Studio Busy, a creative studio in Brooklyn, NY, on November 1.

Product Description
The DIZYGOTIC x Dee & Ricky Project Alpha features premium pigskin suede paired with top-grain leather (solid pattern, right shoe) and vegan leather (pixelation pattern, left shoe), accented with primary brick colors. This pair stands out with its mismatched color and material design, along with asymmetrical detailing on the lateral and medial sides. The insoles include memory foam lining for comfort, while the EVA midsole provides lasting support. Strobel boards showcase mismatched DIZYGOTIC logo prints, and Vibram MegaGrip outsoles deliver enhanced stability and durability. Each pair is meticulously handcrafted in Nectar Lab rather than mass-produced on an assembly line.
