John Elliott x Nike Air Force 1 Low Releasing høsten 2018

Motedesigner John Elliott vil gi ut sin Nike Air Force 1 Low som ble vist under ComplexCon 2017 senere denne høsten 2018.

Dette er en oppfølging av hans forrige Nike Vandal High Collection fra høsten 2017. Hans Nike Air Force 1 kommer i et rent og enkelt hvitt-på-hvitt fargeskjema. Noen av detaljene han la til var en rullesteinsskinnkonstruksjon på de utstansede Swoosh-logoene på sidene.

FINALLY…Beyond excited to share these!!! About a year ago, we had the opportunity to work on the 35th anniversary project for what is in my opinion the most iconic shoe ever, the @nike Air Force 1. There was one stipulation: it had to be all white. When tasked with working on such a culturally significant silhouette under the restriction of keeping it in an all white palette, I wanted to make sure that we included our DNA in the silhouette and tried to craft details that could potentially create color. To me the only way to do that was by adding and reducing layers to create shadows. Since this shoe is so rare lets run through some of what makes it special: Each overlay is doubled up to add dimension. We die-cut the swoosh out of the foxing and quarter and put pebbled leather underneath to create the appearance of it going inward and to create shadows. We took this layering theme and applied it to the smallest details – everything from a layered deubré, double lace keepers, layered aglets, and a double (layered) tongue. We then reduced small details like eyelets and vents down to a bead size. The finished product is something that I am excited to own and share with friends and family members this weekend at ComplexCon. [email protected]
