Levi's and Nike Rejoin for Customizable Denim Sneakers
Transform Two Air Force 1s and an Air Max 90 with classic Levi’s textiles.
Following 2018’s Levi’s x Jordan Brand and the recent denim Converse, Nike keeps the denim love coming with another Levi’s collaboration. Two bespoke Air Force 1 silhouettes comprise the “Nike By Levi’s” pack, but most notably, they forecast a whole slew of custom sneakers.
The “Nike By Levi’s” pack encompasses an Air Force 1 High and Low, each reimagined in washed-out pink and indigo denim and emblazoned with all-over Levi’s logos. Tonal outsoles, Swooshes and high-contrast sockliners give the styles plenty of visual interest, with a classic Levi’s back pocket tab stitched onto the heel. Leather tongue tags reinforce the shoes’ workwear motif.
Furthermore, the duo of Air Force 1s is accompanied by the rollout of a project dubbed “Levi’s By You.” Utilizing Nike’s “By You” program as a base, the initiative grants fans the power to reinvent the same two Air Force 1 models and the Air Max 90 with their own selection of Levi’s fabric and trim. From leather to denim to corduroy to sherpa fleece, the shoes can be revamped in a variety of ways.
Design your own sneakers on Nike’s Levis By You site and mark your calendars for August 26, when the duo drop the “Nike By Levi’s” pack at the stores below. The collection will then arrive at Levi’s flagships in London, Paris and Berlin on August 29.
Recently, Nike and Levi’s reunited in an entirely different venue: BLESS’ half-and-half piecemeal pants.
