Nike X Off-white trainers, a legendary style from the brand.
Ever since it was founded in 1964, Nike has shown itself to have a strong identity and a clear value system. The brand proposes numerous high-quality products for different sporting activities (like tennis, basketball and football) but its influence can now be felt far beyond the boundaries of the world of sport. In fact, the brand calls on fundamentals everyone can identify with, like authenticity, inspiration and courage, to transmit a positive image to the whole world. On top of that, the services of figures popular with the public for their human and sporting qualities are used to promote the brand. Today, everyone has heard of designs like Nike Air Jordans and Nike Air Force. The label is not, however, resting on its laurels and is always finding new ways of being innovative. The successful collaboration with Off-White which began in 2017 is a perfect example.
An instant hit of a collaboration.
Nike teamed up with Virgil Abloh, Louis Vuitton's current creative director, to design a unique collection of trainers. The famous sportswear brand asked the latter to revisit ten or so iconic Nike designs like the Air Jordan 1 and the Air Max 90. The objective was to rework the pieces and update them by garnering current trends in fashion and more specifically trainers, but also, of course, Nike's own value system and style. The collection was an instant success thanks to the strong visual impact of the modern designs. Consumers were amazed by styles they had been familiar with for years which now featured original prints, new high-performance materials and elaborate and unexpected finishes. Today, trainers are no longer aimed only at people who participate in actual sporting activities but also anyone who takes an interest in luxury fashion. The collaboration proved the existence of bridges between luxury and sportswear and showed that trainers are no longer in the confines of the sporting domain.
