With ComplexCon 2025 now behind us, it’s time to take a closer look at what Diesel brought to the Vegas proceedings this year.

At the Daniel Arsham-led festival, Diesel hosted a unique booth on the Las Vegas Convention Center floor featuring a preview of its new DIESELVES DIESEL VINTAGE collection. The capsule sees the Italian luxury denim brand reintroducing rare and iconic looks from its archive for a new generation, with some designs dating back as far as the late 1980s. Each piece is Italian made and has been fully restored, including the Ranger jacket and Denver jeans.

This marks the latest chapter in the DIESELVES program, which keeps an eye toward sustainability by reimagining unsold pieces, thus giving them a second life.

In addition to ComplexCon 2025 attendees getting a chance to shop the DIESELVES DIESEL VINTAGE capsule at the brand’s designated booth last month, the brand and ComplexCon partnered on a separate capsule featuring hoodies and t-shirts emblazoned with vintage-inspired graphics. The designs showcase nods to Las Vegas and the American West at large. Get a closer look below.

To shop the Diesel and ComplexCon capsule, whether you witnessed it all go down in Vegas last month or not, see here. The t-shirts run $175, while the hoodies are going for $250.

This year’s ComplexCon performers included Young Thug, Clipse, Yeat, and more. At one point, the festival even saw an Elvis impersonator being enlisted for two ComplexCon attendees’ wedding.
