size? x Nike Lunar Air 180 ACG “10th Anniversary”





size? and Nike have collaborated once again for the UK retailer’s 10th year anniversary. Both sides chose the ever-so-popular Nike Lunar Air 180 model as the silhouette selection for their ninth joint effort of the year. The collaborators applied “ACG” attributes to this shoe, as they incorporated a multi-colored, original (1991) Air Terra ACG color scheme to the entire upper. A primarily purple upper is offset by Black Torch technology-laced sections, namely on the toe, sides, collar and tongue. Other intriguing features include orange laces, pink Nike branding, a gold 180 Air unit and a white/black speckled Lunar sole.

ALEX NASH SNEAKER ARCHIVE EXHIBITION - JOHANNESBURG - 15 OCTOBER


Recognised internationally for his signature theme: the moc-stitch - a painstaking craft that he learnt from scratch and perfected via trial and error, Alex Nash customs are hybrids that bring together sports and casual design. Raised amid the sneaker one-upmanship of the late '80s and early '90s, London based sneaker customiser Alex Nash grew up fixated with athletic footwear. His admiration for the panels, makeup’s and innovations that marked a golden age of sneaker design left him with a shoe addiction that still hasn't budged.

After showcasing his work to over 2000 people at the Cape Town Station on the 24th of September at STR.CRD kicking with Sportscene, Alex Nash aka NashMoney is bringing the critically acclaimed works he showed in Cape Town to Johannesburg for one night only at the GrayScale Gallery in Braamfontein.
