Jovani Hernandez Tokyo-born artist Mayumi Yamase is the latest collaborator to assist NIKE, Inc. in popularizing its sustainable Nike Flyleather material. Her canvas?: The Nike Blazer Low.
Akin to the accompanying Air Force 1, the forthcoming pair indulges in a predominantly “White” arrangement across its upper. Profile swooshes, labels on the tongue and branding on the heel deviate from the “colorless” makeup in a mix of freehand, whimsical detailing and color choices. Abstract embroidered shapes also join the mix on the lateral heel and medial mid-foot, further proffering vibrant pink and blue flair, respectively, to the understated upper made from at least 50% recycled leather fibers. Suede reinforcement around the forefoot and along the tongue add a touch of grey to the Nike Blazer, while herringbone-patterned outsoles boast a fan-favorite light gum brown finish.
Enjoy official images of Yamase’s Blazer Low Flyleather ahead, and expect pairs to hit Nike SNKRS on May 19th.
