adidas APS Oki-ni

Here is the adidas APS Oki-ni. According to Crooked Tongues, this crazy colorway is inspired by the “Italian designer Ettore SottsassA’s Memphis furniture creations from the 1980s. The furniture attempted to echo classic design from previous decades in an attempt to combat what they saw as the mediocre design aesthetics of the 1970s. The construction of the furniture utilised a lot of Formica-like laminates often featuring prints such as the A`BacterioA’ pattern which is similar to that found on the APS midsole.” Check out more pictures at Crooked Tongues.

Nike Makes Barefoot Breakthrough

Like to have some reading about Nike? Wired has a article about Nike by Mark McClusky. “From the day in 1970 that legendary University of Oregon track coach Bill Bowerman poured rubber onto his wife’s waffle iron to create a new running shoe sole, Nike has been a company dedicated to pushing the technological envelope in search of shoes that cushion, support and protect athlete’s feet. Which is why its emphasis on running barefoot is so unexpected.” Read the rest of the article here. Info via Freshness.
