The upcoming Spring 2018 basketball wear designs by NikeLab and Riccardo Tisci is set to take the sports world by storm right before the NBA All-Star Weekend. The silhouettes have a tailored athletic fit, spanning from garments that are compressed and tight to oversized and loose. Titled 'The Victorious Minotaurs,' the collection embraces elite athleticism, highlighting the elegance and grace of the game.
Sporting the Nike x Riccardo Tisci logo, the 2018 basketball wear line presents long mesh jersey dresses with drawstrings on the side, among other items that are fit for use both on and off the court.
Nested among the youthful and sporty Spring 2018 silhouettes is, of course, the Nike Air Force 1—a black and white leather shoe with color accents of red and yellow and a retro ankle strap.
