Virgil Abloh hopped on Twitter on April 7 to get a consensus of what sneakerheads wanted from any upcoming OFF-WHTE x Nike drops. Twitter fingers moved faster than SNKRS fingers as Abloh’s mentions were quickly flooded.<\/p>\n

Right off the bat, someone asked about a potential Nike Virgil\/Nike Abloh. The Chicago native communicated that something similar to a signature shoe is in the works as he simultaneously juggles redesigning models from Nike’s historic vault. On that same note, it appears that Abloh is going on a nostalgic wave for the next OFF-WHITE x Nike batch as he alludes to usage of older, lesser known silhouettes.<\/p>\n

Abloh would go on to quote Tweet some of the shoes he wore back in the day as well as feeling a handful of pairs. We don’t want to spoil anything, so take a look at what he had to say himself below.<\/p>\n

Nike Velo<\/h1>\n

The Nike Velo was a member of the Swoosh’s initial and short lived cycling campaign from back in the day. Suede and mesh would come together on a performance engineered outsole made just for cycling.<\/p>\n

Nike Air Digs Low<\/h1>\n

The Nike Air Digs Low was a proud member of Nike’s volleyball line. If you look closely, the pair strikes a similarity to the Nik Air Flight 89. Food for thought.<\/p>\n

Nike Air Max Speed Turf<\/h1>\n

The classic Speed Turf. The shoe, although not a signature shoe, was heavily worn by Dan Marino. It would definitely be interesting to see how Abloh works his magic on these.<\/p>\n

Nike Air NDESTRUKT 1995<\/h1>\n

The Nike Air NDESTRUKT, not to be confused with Dennis Rodman’s Air Shake NDESTRUKT, was engineered for outdoor use. The pair would hold a heavy influence on Rodman’s eventual footwear of choice under the Swoosh.<\/p>\n

Nike Air Rift<\/h1>\n

Was it a slide? Was it a shoe? Was it a sandal? The answer is yes. The Nike Air Rift provided comfortability and breathability. In addition to that, the Air Rift was easy to use (pre-FlyEase) and featured a durable midsole and rigid outsole for everyday wear.<\/p>\n

Nike Aqua Sock<\/h1>\n

The Nike Aqua Sock was a vibrant adaptation of a swim shoe that you could get wet while simultaneously having the support and structure of a regular sneaker. Ahead of its time for sure. Take a look at the vintage ad below for a good chuckle.<\/p>\n

Keep it locked here at Snkrs Day as we hope to see most, if not all of these, to get Virgl’s signature redesign on the silhouettes. In other OFF-WHITE news, take a closer look at the upcoming OFF-WHITE x Air Jordan 1 “Canary Yellow”<\/a> along with the upcoming OFF-WHITE x Nike Air Rubber Dunk collection<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
