Never one to rest on their successes, Nike Sportswear will introduce a new lifestyle sneaker this season, the Nike Hachi. This midtop bears a certain resemblance to the Blazer but its true heritage in the Beaverton lineage is a far more seldom seen model. And while you might naturally associate their silhouette and perforated Swoosh outline with NSW’s Toki chukka, one look at the orange/green colorup will have obscurist sneakerheads exclaim, “OMG, Nike Sting!” That colorway along with the toe and eye placket on every pair are borrowed from the late-’70s runner, and you can see more of this April 2011 release plus a royal blue pair by clicking on the jump below. via FNG
