Jovani Hernandez As NIKE, Inc. continues to focus on the “next big thing” for its basketball footwear lineup, the North American conglomerate continues to tap into its heritage to deliver nostalgic, but refreshing takes of some of yesteryear’s novel designs. The nike Sko Blazer Mid ’77 Zapatos Air Max Genome GS CZ4652 005 Pure Platinum White.
Recently, the first official nike Sko Basketball shoe surfaced in an extremely simple, but stylish white and grey colorway for kids. Akin to most of the silhouette’s most signature arrangements, the upcoming sneakers indulge in smooth synthetic leather across the upper, which favors a “colorless” look. Profile swooshes, upper heel underlays and reinforcement panels around the forefoot deviate in a slight grey, resembling “Neutral Grey” options from the Air Jordan lineup. Sole units maintain a relatively standard aesthetic, but one look at the tread reveals a nike Sko Grind update to the 1970s design; the speckled dark grey material is comprised of manufacturing floor scraps up-cycled as part of the Swoosh’s “Pearl Jam nike Sko Kyrie 4 Custom” campaign.
No firm Nike.com release date has been disclosed by the brand, but that’s likely to change once spring gets underway. While you wait, enjoy official images of the shoes here below.
