Michael Le After a year-long delay, the Tokyo Olympics is finally near. That means Nike, among others, can bring out all the releases they had planned and then some. Among the upcoming, the brand is to bring attention back to the Cosmic Unity, dressing up the basketball silhouette in element-inspired colorways.
This pair kicks us off with the boldest scheme of the four. Reds scorch throughout the upper — collar, profile, even midsole — alluding to fire in overt fashion. The tongues and laces see collateral damage as does the pulls adjacent, while the eye stay and outsole narrowly avoid danger as they flaunt only a light pink shade. Elsewhere, the touches of volt sprinkle throughout the laces, greyed out synthetic forms the branded emblem, and equally neutral marbling creates a smoky effect along the Swoosh.
For a closer, official look, see below. A release is sure to hit Nike.com and select retailers soon.
