Di'orr Greenwood Creates a Pair of the Nike SB Sneaker
References: highsnobiety
Nike works in collaboration with Di'orr Greenwood to create its own iteration of the Nike SB sneaker model for the season. The skateboarding silhouette is defined by its laceless design over the forefoot with contrasting textural finishes. The joint shoe covers up the sneakers and adds a shrouded detail.
When it is peeled back, the boxy flaps unveil a practical shoelace system that is designed with woven eyelets. In terms of the fabric materials, the upper seems to be made with smooth matte finishings along the upper with a spongey tongue. It is rounded out by flower emblems and textural patterns to easily blend into the stealthy tonal background as a nod to Di'orr Greenwood's indigenous heritage.
