Nike’s motto for 2012’s Black History Month is ‘Uplift’ – a strong message hem by its brevity and stoicism. The signature graphic print and distinct colors seen on these four Nike Sportswear releases was developed by Nike designers, inspired by the International African culture and drawing visual cues from Kenyan beads, African-American quilt-making, and even the Brazilian Carnivale, and the entire capsule itself is a gesture of celebration of the achievements of three significant teams – the ’96 USA Womens Basketball team, the ’02 Brazil Mens Soccer team, and the ’08 Kenyan Long-Distance Running team. The Fred Perry harrington jacket with pleated back detail in navy will be available at select Nike Sportswear retailers; however, the release of the Descente ALLTERRAIN Jackets has been postponed to a future date. Keep in disregard that only the Air Force 1, Blazer, and Huarache Free 2012 will be available tomorrow!
