Nike Taps Japanese Artist Mayumi Yamase To Rework the Air Force 1 and Blazer Low Flyleather
Peep the creative’s artwork on the Swoosh’s signature styles.
Tokyo-based painter, sculptor, editor and writer Mayumi Yamase has joined forces with Nike to design her own take on the brand’s signature silhouettes.
Featuring the Air Force 1 and Blazer Low Flyleather, the sneakers boast the artist’s signature style throughout. The former pair sports hits of “Crimson Bliss” and “Signal Blue” on the upper along with classic design lines with organic forms that represent natural elements. As for the latter kicks, the sustainable style also comes with Yamase’s artwork dressed in “Turf Orange” and “Copa” hues. Rounding out both silhouettes is the rough paint swash on the Swooshes.
Priced at $130 USD, Mayumi Yamase x Nike’s Air Force 1 and Blazer Low Flyleather are now available to shop via Nike Japan’s website. Nike SNKRS U.S. will see a later launch date of June 8.
