Nike works in collaboration with the iconic Museum of Modern Art in New York as the two create the Everyday Sock. It is a straightforward design as it features co-branded details of the two contributing forces. The socks are stitched with "Just Do It" at the toe unit and come in an array of colorway options.
The MoMA Nike socks are essentially just bright Nike socks that are made with MoMA branding. This is also the introduction of much more collaborative work to come between the two brands as there are plans to continue dropping more products in the near future. In a press release, MoMA notes, "More special-edition products to be announced at a later date."
