Nike Taps Ruohan Wang on a Pack of Footwear
Nike taps the talents of Berlin-based artist Ruohan Wang on a pack of sneaker designs that are fully bold and expressive. The pack includes the iconic Air Force 1, the Air Max 90, and the Blazer Mid '77 silhouettes -- each one is entirely detailed with painterly accents in a colorful palette for a lively look.
The Blazer Mid '77 sneaker boasts mismatching details at the tongue, branding accents, and a motif of two walking legs that reflects the graphics that is also found at the heel counters. The bright upper is complimented by the clean white Swoosh and the artist's signature is marked on the midsole for a finalizing touch. The rest of the pack also follows through with the vivid and bold color palette for a stark look.
