Virgil Abloh's latest colourways for Nike's 'The Ten' Zoom Fly are now available for registration on END. Launches
In what can only be described as the age of Virgil, the multi-hyphenate creator and newly appointed artistic director at Louis Vuitton menswear appears to drop searing heat or seismic-shift-inducing industry news on an almost daily basis.
Continuing the blistering hype of last year’s iconic ‘The Ten’ collaboration between Nike and Off-White’s founder, Virgil Abloh, the partnership officially unveils its latest re-issue: a duo of fresh colourways to join the OG colourway of the Zoom Fly in the sneaker hall of fame.
Following on from earlier re-issues of the AJ1, Vapormax, Presto, and Blazer silhouettes, the ongoing programme of reissues from last year’s collaborative debut indicates the likelihood that this ongoing partnership between Nike and Virgil is ready to challenge the cultural significance of adidas’ work with Kanye, Raf, and Rick Owens.
Ready for race day or the runway, the semi-translucent one-piece Flymesh is marked by the Helvetica typeface on the medial side, with the signature cut-and-sewn Swoosh branding the side-wall.
Putting everything in quotations, the smooth responsive ride of the firm “FOAM” midsole bends the shoe’s performance into the realms of Nike couture.
Imagining the athlete as a muse and the streets like the runway, meet the demands of your toughest tempos with the carbon-infused nylon plate and Flywire technology, which sees its lacing complete with the signature zip tie.
