JAB! BY VERA NEDERLOF® – BOXING COUTURE –
About JAB!
The ‘Jab’ is a punch that helps boxers to determine their position. Existing clothing gets ‘Jabbed’ with or made of boxing items; a dress and hand bag from an old punching bag, trousers with a waistband from boxing shorts, a jacket up-cycled with boxing hand wraps or with a hoodie of satin like a boxer wears before starting a fight. It’s not streetwear òr sportswear, it’s not casual òr chic, it is hybrid. Unique and sustainable.
Get Jabbed! How Jab works
Find in your closet or secondhand store a piece you like to get Jabbed, you can choose from different options* and your clothing will be Jabbed; exclusive and handcrafted. Finally, signed with a print* of one of my boxing drawings makes it a complete artwork!

Who’s
Vera Nederlof decided to start boxing after a long period of classical ballet dancing. “Boxing is like dancing but with more improvisation. It’s like a pas de deux, but instead of dancing with someone, you dance ‘against’ your opponent. Boxing gives me freedom, it gives me strength, it gives me self-confidence and fun. I see it like playing chess with my body, it gives me people knowledge and it’s a way to express myself with my boxing artworks”.
“To combine the two worlds of boxing and art in very different ways. For example, I like to show my artworks as a performance exhibition; as a ring card girl in the boxing ring showing my artwork during a boxing match. Recently I worked on a mural of a rope skipping boxer. I always keep exploring what I can do more with my drawings and always try to cross boundaries. JAB! BY VERA NEDERLOF® – BOXING COUTURE – is my newest concept.”
