On-Foot: KAWS x sacai x Nike Blazer Low
Chitose Abe’s label continues to fuel the hype train in 2021, the Japanese entity already revealing multiple iterations of the coveted and VaporWaffle this year. And sacai are also turning the volume up on their highly-anticipated three-way collaborations, linking up with Jean Paul Gaultier and pop-culture behemoth .
We’ve now got an on-foot look at the KAWS x sacai x Nike Blazer Low, the two colourful colourways scheduled to drop later this month. A central piece of the KAWS x sacai FW21 ‘Wearable Art’ collection, the collaboration is again emblazoned with Abe’s signature stacked motif.
KAWS’ signature ‘XX’ iconography strikes the forefoot, while sacai x Nike co-branding appears on the two tongues. Double the Swoosh and laces create havoc on the visual palette, while white layered sole units are pasted at the base.
