‘Black’

Since it was initially founded in 1964 by Bill Bowerman and Phil Knight as ‘Blue Ribbon Sports’ and renamed ‘Nike,’ the sportswear and lifestyle brand has continued to pave the way for future labels when it comes to pushing the envelope when it comes to creating revolutionary apparel, sneakers, and more. Deemed as the ‘original streetwear brand,’ fashion label Stüssy also has a distinct repertoire worth mentioning. Established in 1980 by the former surfer Shawn Stussy, what started with him screen-printing t-shirts has since grown into a full-fledged clothing brand that combines both surf and skateboarding cultures.

 

Both Nike and Stüssy together are unstoppable forces, and this force has made an impression since the duo began their footwear and apparel collaborations over 20 years ago. With some of the most coveted sneaker releases of all time placed on silhouettes like the Nike Dunk, Air Max 95, Blazer Low/Mid, and Air Force 1, since their first collaboration, Nike and Stüssy not only separately but collectively have set the tone for how streetwear and sportswear brands can work together to create something never seen before.

 

The Nike x Stüssy collaboration introduces its latest footwear collaboration: the Nike x Stüssy Air Force 1 Mid ‘Black.’ Composed of premium leather within its upper, this sportswear/streetwear collaborative silhouette sports a monochromatic aesthetic. Glossy side Swooshes are intertwined with a circular metallic ‘SS’ logo attachment at the heel. Additional branding is seen within the woven tongue label. ‘STUSSY’ is embroidered at the ankle collar strap. Signature Nike Air cushioning underneath adds optimal comfort with each step. A rubber otusole is placed underneath the look, completing it in its entirety.
