Nike Air Presto x Virgil Abloh: On-Foot Shots
The NIKE AIR PRESTO x VIRGIL ABLOH is just one of The Ten: a special series of reconstructed Nike icons from OFF-WHITE™’s creative director.
OFF-WHITE™ has established itself as one of the labels to watch, ever since its launch back in 2014. With innovative concepts, clever use of materials and unique detailing throughout, joining up with Nike on this collaborative project makes perfect sense. With an outstanding selection of ten models from the Nike archives, there’s definitely something for everyone here.
The Air Presto is one of the first five models to release from the collection and it’s one of the most interesting. Typically, there’s not a huge amount of room to mess with the Presto silhouette, but Abloh’s creative approach to the project finds us encountering deconstructed panels, graphic overlays and contrasting details throughout. And it doesn’t stop there: the packaging matches the contents, with an inside-out twist to the shoebox that continues the overall theme. Zip ties and a trio of shoelaces in neon green, orange and white round off the Presto package in premium fashion.
The NIKE AIR PRESTO x VIRGIL ABLOH is starting to hit the streets now, released in small numbers via special events at various Nike locations. A wider release is planned for November, so keep checking back with us for the latest details. Until then, click the banner below to check the latest releases at NIKE ahead of the drop.
