Nike Works with Naomi Osaka on a Pair of the Blazer Mids
Nike works in collaboration with athlete Naomi Osaka and fashion brand COMME des GARÇONS on a special pair of the Blazer Mid silhouette. The trio celebrate the athlete and use the '77 iteration as the base foundation of the footwear's structure.
The sneaker is complete with white corduroy materials as the base before it is detailed with gray suede panels to give it contrasting texture and depth. The print that informs the entire upper reads "Naomi Osaka/COMME des GARÇONS/HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS." This message repeats itself throughout the shoe for a heartfelt theme, as Osaka also signs the shoe. Branding details can be found in the form of Swooshes made from leather on the side, the tongue tags, and a "NIKE" print found on the leather heel tabs.
