Taking a cue from the famous American abstract expressionist painter Jackson Pollock, the Nike Green Splatter Highs have been released for Spring 2010. The kicks feature a dark green leather upper with a muted green splatter pattern all over.
The Nike Green Splatter Highs only come in one colorway--a grey swoosh and heel collar with matching outsole complement the green pattern. To add another dimension, the swoosh and collar are made out of a cotton, sweatshirt-like material.
