With the Tokyo Olympics just days away, it only becomes more painfully apparent how much time has passed. Over a year ago, Nike hosted their very own runway show, parading the collaborative looks of international icons Off-White, UNDERCOVER, sacai, and AMBUSH. And while each collection was already prepared for release — having been created for the games when they were still 2020-bound — COVID-19 put in motion numerous delays that have finally come close to an end.
Updated to reflect the release changes, the very same news post Nike dropped many a night ago was just bumped up the timeline. To reiterate, the partnership invites designers Virgil Abloh, Jun Takahashi, Yoon Ahn, and Chitose Abe to help celebrate the Olympic games. Each, in their respective styles, provide the public numerous athletic pieces and even footwear, effectively speaking to themes of sport and the unity that closely follows.
