Nike Air Presto “Essential White” Custom

Fun Fact: The concept of Air Presto was born in Korea in 1996, but the sneaker became a reality only in 2000.

Nike Lady Waffle Trainer 

Fun Fact: The Nike Waffle Trainer - Nike's first running shoe- is inspired by a waffle iron. Bill Boweman, co-founder of the brand, had an intuition watching his wife prepare the waffles for breakfast: the grooves of the iron were a perfect mold to create an optimal sole for a running shoe.

LeBron James x John Elliott Icon QS

Fun Fact: Elliot said that the first time he had the opportunity to meet LeBron, at an afterparty in Los Angeles in 2014, he was literally overwhelmed by the figure of the athlete.

Air Jordan Legacy 312 “Ghost Green”

Fun Fact: For Don C the Air Jordan 3 represents the "foundation of the brand"; for this reason he decided that the sole of his Legacy 312 and the elephant print would be a tribute to the iconic silhouette.

Air Jordan 1 Retro OG “Bred Toe”

Fun Fact: Last November, a lucky sneakerhead got his hands on the highly anticipated model a few months in advance (the release date of the Bred Toe was set, in fact, on February). It’s all the fault of Eastbay, and an Air Jordan 1 "RE2PECT" never arrived.

Comme des Garçons x Nike ACG Air Mowabb

Fun Fact: Made by Tinker Hatfield in 1991 the Mowabb carried the Huarache in the mountains by adding a neoprene collar all around the ankle.
