Tapping into 2022 Tap dance was born in the early 19th century, shaping a style of communication between people. With a powerful part to play in the Roaring Twenties, the dynamic art form grew so popular, it took centre stage at Broadway shows in New York.

Fast forward to 2022 and tap is making a modern revival across the globe. But this time, it’s been remixed on the streets. An urban dance style has manifested, with a crossover of tap and break dance forming. Rewinding back to the place where denim first became the ultimate fabric for self-expression. And serving as the primary inspiration for the new G-Star campaign.
World Champion Tap Dancers The full denim styles were brought to life by two world-class tap dancers - World Tap Champion, Kamira Samuel and first class Broadway performer, Lee Howard.
Each dance movement showcases the premium, multi-functional looks from their latest Hardcore denim collection. Jack Evans choreographed the tap dance, creating the perfect synergy of dance, music and denim.
“The simple premise of two characters in separate locations communicating transcendently through rhythm gives a contemporary lens for us to view tap dance in its rawest, most authentic form.”
– Jack Evans, Choreographer
