Nike Sportswear Track & Field Collection – Spring 2012

Nike Sportswear Track & Field Collection   Spring 2012

An embodiment of Prefontaine, the updated Track & Field Collection from Nike Sportswear derived from the same “can do” ethos as the late distance runner along with the likes of Carl Lewis, Flo-Jo, Joan Benoit, and others. If you would to look into the collection’s true origin, you will find Nike Co-Founder Bill Bowerman at the helm. And as he expected perfection from his athletes, he did the same with their tools of the trade. Hence, the mix of glory, heritage, and technology in each of the collection’s design. You will find the collection at selected retail locations around the world such as Sportswear flagship store.

Written by: Poe

Creativity speaking, it was a way to escape from the daily grind and to tap that original inspirations which started it all. Of course, that “original inspirations” could be anything and everything, from a simple leisurely stroll on the beach to something as outrageous as a trip around the world.

Nike WMNS Destroyer Jacket

Nike WMNS Destroyer Jacket

This winter has seen many new takes on the timeless favorite from Nike Sportswear for the fellas, but this remastered Destroyer Jacket goes out to the ladies. The WMNS Destroyer Jacket features the warmth you expect from a Wool/Polyester body along with a ribbed collar, cuffs, and bottom hem and a zipper-protected chest pocket common in old school varsity jackets. The two hip pockets and inner lining are 100% nylon and match the black outer highlighted by tonal trim. And, in what is probably the most unique update from Nike, the jacket has detachable leather sleeves allowing it to become a vest with a couple quick zips under the wool lip. You can pick up this updated take on the classic collegiate jacket at CALIROOTS’ SIX FEET DOWN online store or at their store in Stockholm, Sweden.
