The Nike Sportswear Collection is in Honor of the NBA All-Star Weekend
Meghan Young — February 6, 2015 — Fashion
The 2015 Nike Sportswear Collection, which has been dubbed Constellation, was created in anticipation of the upcoming All-Star NBA Weekend. The event may be showcasing the capabilities of the basketball industry's top players, but those supporting it will want to look the part from head to toe. This Nike Sportswear Collection takes care of the latter in a big way.
Comprised of four designs, the Nike Sportswear Collection incorporates five-point, four-point and single-point stars throughout. Hypebeast reports that these touches "respectively, pay homage to New York City’s five boroughs, the four quarters of play in a basketball game, and the 'single, legend-making exhibition that caps the game’s biggest celebration.'" The footwear making up the collection are the Air Force 1, Dunk High CMFT, Air Foamposite One, and LunarWavy Sky H.
