Nike has launched a Beijing Collection, which includes a collectible set of sneakers that honors this year’s Olympics.
Each of these sneakers were inspired by something in Beijing, like the Beijing National Stadium. For example, the Air Max 87s contain octagon designs resembling the eight sides of the stadium. Another pair features lined patterns reminiscent of the stadium’s bird nest design.
The collection includes the Air Max 87, Air Max BW, Air Max 90 and Air Max 95, Air Max Ltd 2, R4 and Shox NZ.
These “Bejing” lucky sneakers are featured at Foot Locker under their Nike Feed Your Own Obession collection.
