Tokyo-based artist Mayumi Yamase and Nike<\/a> have come together to release a collection featuring the Nike Air Force 1<\/a> Low and Nike Blazer<\/a> Low, both using Flyleather. Flyleather, introduced in 2017, is an engineered leather material that uses at least 50% of recycled leather fibers. That in turn has a lower impact on climate change and reduces the carbon footprint compared to leather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yamase, known for her abstract yet playful works, uses community as an inspiration for this AF1 Low and Blazer Low collection. \u201cCommunity gives me a sense of comfort and fun in my daily life, but it also stretches my imagination and surprises me, leading to discoveries in my own artwork that challenge my expectations\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The uppers on the Air Force 1 Low and Blazer Low both use a white base with grey suede hits on the lace overlays and tip. with Yamase’s whimsical and colorful touch painted all over the upper. The Air Force 1 Low uses a gum midsole and outsole for contrast and the Blazer Low sticks with the white midsole and outsole for a clean summer vibe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Mayumi Yamase x Nike Flyleather Collection Summer 2021<\/strong> will release on SNKRS, NikeLab MA5, and Dover Street Market Ginza in Tokyo. An MSRP is still unknown but check out our Sneaker Release Dates<\/a> page for more information when it’s revealed.<\/p>\n\n\n
