Nike will unveil its latest textile creation called Engineered Mesh beginning in January, taking form in Nike’s most iconic running footwear in history. While Engineered Mesh, or EM, will be used for its performance running footwear, Nike Sportswear will implement the breakthrough innovation onto classics like Tinker Hatfield’s Air Max 90, using EM on zoned areas to mimic the color-blocking and gradient patterns on the originals. This women’s colorway, inspired by the original ‘Laser Pink’, will debut in January as part of Nike Women’s Spring/Summer 2013 Collection, so check out a full-shot as well as some close-ups below and stay tuned for more updates from Nike Sportswear’s running catalog.
