The NSW Pinnacle Collection celebrates the lifestyle of sport, elevating off-field apparel through refined silhouettes that merge artisan craftsmanship and exclusive Nike technology. Manufactured in Italy.
Inspired by the concept of ‘dragon’, this low top features a design that blends dragon boat imagery with traditional Chinese dragon iconography. The special edition celebrates the 30th anniversary of this classic design.
Designed with the dragon boat concept as a primary inspiration, the upper includes red suede with an embossed scale pattern, while the outsole and part of the upper are made of bright blue leather. The overall design echoes that of a dragon boat, evoking a red boat floating on a blue lake, with the golden Swoosh emphasizing the nobility and majesty of the dragon.
2012 is known as “the Year of the Water Dragon,” and this interpretation of a dragon rising out of the sea conveys the idea of prosperity for all. The multi-colored knitted tongue design represents the cultural features of the Dragon Boat Festival and best wishes for safety and health.
The shoe’s tongue top uses the ‘dragon in clouds’ pattern, identical to the Year of the Dragon Air Force 1 from Spring. Additional details include the multi-colored cloud pattern on the cushion, representing good fortune. The character for ‘dragon’ in ancient oracle bone script on the heel counter, pearl dubrets with the Roman numerals “XXX”, and the premium aglets. The extra set of red shoelaces provides an additional color element.
Entering 2012, Nike has teamed up with CLOT once again to release their newest creation – the Nike Clot Tennis Classic AC. Sharing the same passion in design and creativity, Nike and CLOT have worked together in numerous collaborations and have built a strong relationship over the years. Previous launches which created overwhelming responses have included the limited edition Nike CLOT Air Force 1 and Nike CLOT Grand Slam Polo. The combination of CLOT’s style and creativity with Nike’s traditional craftsmanship now continues.
As one of CLOT’s favorite style of vintage footwear, the simple and understated Tennis Classic has always been synonymous with Nike’s cultural heritage. The iconic style of the Tennis Classic makes it challenging to reinvent and revamp with modern elements. The Nike Clot Tennis Classic AC fulfills a crucial mission: to deliver something new from an original and iconic item.
As a throwback to its vintage roots, an earthy suede in light bone is featured on the upper part of the Nike Clot Tennis Classic AC to create an antique touch. The CLOT red is used on the swoosh and heel tap to generate a punch of color. The Nike and CLOT logo also appear on the heel tap. The new material mix and color combination represents an all-time classic for today.
NIKE Reaches Into Its Design Archives To Resurrect A Classic.
The NIKE Night Track.
It is often that NIKE is asked to bring back silhouettes that were only available to a few and a time capsule is the only way to go back through the decades to cop a pair.
The NIKE Night Track, with the classic LDV running upper is fashioned in silver metallic. One with candy apple red swoosh and design accents, the NIKE Night Track is finished off with a smooth glitter sole ideal for gliding across any dance floor. The glitter detailing is inspired by the 1950’s trend of customizing old cars and the era that kicked off a music revolution in American culture spawning the invention of 70s disco.
NIKE celebrates the soul of the 70s and the vibrant fashion and nightlife obsessed generation that taught the world how to boogie woogie woogie without a care in the world. At a time when style is center stage, NIKE looks to the modern day equivalent; those who embody both the energy of a robust nightlife and the spirit of fashion that is synonymous with the 70s.
Sport can come in many forms. Whether you are a runner or you train hard in the gym, there was an period in American culture when dancing the night away beneath disco balls and the blaring tune of a disco beat went well into the wee hours of the night. New York City was critical to this revolution that swept the world offering infamous venues where the beautiful people looked to
the dance floor as a competitive stage. It is here when the NIKE Night Track moon walked across the wooden flooring of a bustling nightlife.
Released as an exact replica of the original NIKE Night Track of the 70’s, modern innovation brings a new modern level of comfort to the wearer. Whatever field of sport you choose, NIKE taps into unique product to inspire action. The NIKE Night Track is the ideal footwear for anyone opting to dance the night away in style.
