One of the key reasons Nike attracts so varied and large a group of collaborative designers, is because their classic models are literally canvases upon which you can apply your own distinctive style. The Nike Premium Nike Free 3.0 V2 Collection for spring 2012 proves that this can be achieved in a number of ways, the most to the letter of which is the application of whimsical prints on the Chuck Taylor Free Run in the latest round of Nike ♥ Marimekko releases. Longtime One Star guest designer John Varvatos adds his own offerings, but as you might expect, they’re crafted in dingy destructed leathers instead of the classic canvas build. Both Air Max 95 360 Womens of these collabo sets as well as a range of other beloved silhouettes await your click on the jump below, and you’ll find these in stores at select Nike retailers around the world.
Nike Skateboarding has been building serious momentum for a couple years now, and in their latest set of releases, we get the evidence that the success in expanding their footwear lineup has resulted in the ability for new internal organizations. For example, the ‘Form + Function’ collection brings together stripped down versions of classic styles to meet your skating needs, while the ‘Nike Skate Ambassador’ set gives us new colorways from CONS signature riders like Nick Trapasso, Kenny Anderson and Anthony Pappalardo. You’ll see the whole lineup profiled individually when you click through, so let us know which pair is the brand’s most exciting Air Max 2012 Men Shoes and expect these in stores starting February 1st.
Nike seems set on replicating the success Nike has seen in recent years with their annual Lunar New Year sneaker releases, and the nubmer of One Star shoes themed after the Chinese Zodiac continues to climb with almost each passing day. The latest revelation is a new pair of Nike One Star 74 II Ox lowtops crafted in an embossed red nubuck that bears the reptillian texture you might expect to find on a patch of dragon skin, if such a thing were to exist. These have all the look of a fiery beast without any of the need to carry a sword, and they’ll be available just in time for the celebration next month at Asian Nike retailers. via FRESHNESS
