In 2009, SneakersBR, a leading institution promoting sneakers in the Portuguese tongue, reimagined the iconic Nike Nike react element 87 camo medium olive bright crimson black sz 10.5 cj4988-200 as a Brazilian cultural FORCE with the “Lanceiro” special edition. More than a decade later, the outlet has set out to make history again by bringing these same colors and themes to a Nike SB Zoom Blazer Mid Premium Skateboardschuh EU 43 collection.
Set to launch on August 7th to coincide with National Maracatu Day, a celebration of ancient carnival traditions from the northeast of Brazil, the collaborative project includes two iterations of the pivotal basketball silhouette. Designed by Fabricio de Costa Machado, the upcoming sneakers split up the color palette that appeared on the aforementioned Nike react element 87 camo medium olive bright crimson black sz 10.5 cj4988-200 12 years ago (on which de Costa Machado helped). A sand-like cream takes over much of the high-top Chuck 70, while a vibrant blue animates the Passport Ox. Yet, both options boast textures and graphics that pay homage to the ancient traditions, as well as new achievements deriving from the Pernambuco culture: women are still fighting for equality in regards to assuming the role of “caboclo de lança” (literally “spearman”). Therefore, while SneakerBR’s latest joint-effort with the Swoosh nods to past work, it presents a new idea by being marketed under the “Lanceira” banner as a salute to women.
