Off-White x Nike Tiempo Legend concept design
The Instagram profile Football Vault showed how a possible collabo between Nike Football and Abloh could look like
November 14th, 2017
Some of the most hyped sneakers of the last months - that in fact won the sneaker of the year award - are the ones that came out of the collaboration between Off-White, the brand of Kind Midas Virgil Abloh, and Nike. A reworking of some iconic models of Beaverton brand’s history, with Abloh and his brand’s unique style. Already being a cult among the sneakerheads all over the world, it was just a matter of time before someone came out with a football version of this collabo, and in fact, we have one now.
The Instagram profile Boots Vault (@toffem) has presented a concrete version of the Nike Tiempo Legend 7 “Platinum Black” - a limited version of one of the Swoosh’s latest silos - designed in its Off-White version. The shoe presents a “Logo” writing on the white swoosh, expressly added above Tiempo’s black one, and the “Legend” writing on the side. In the internal part of the shoe, there’s the iconic “address” of Abloh’s collaborations: “Off-White c/o Nike Tiempo Legend, Beaverton, Oregon, USA, c. 1994”. Finally, the “Shoe Laces” writing and the iconic red plate complete this concept design.
It’s unlikely that this Off-White x Nike Tiempo Legend will ever become something more than a simple concept, but the two brands, after the lucky basketball collaborations, may team up for a football-inspired one in the future.
