Nike And Virgil Abloh Debut The Ten Shoe Collaboration

Air Max 90

August 21, 2017. 6 Comments

Nike and Off-White designer Virgil Abloh today (August 21, 2017) rolled out all the official details on their long-rumored ten shoe collaboration. Titled The Ten, the collection is made up of ten iconic Nike silhouettes, all made in collaboration with Abloh.

In speaking of the project, Abloh stated, “What we’re talking about here is larger than sneakers, it’s larger than design culture. It’s nothing short of state-of-the-art design. These 10 shoes have broken barriers in performance and style. To me, they are on the same level as a sculpture of David or the Mona Lisa. You can debate it all you want, but they mean something. And that’s what’s important.”

The ten shoes were divided into two design themes. The Revealing group was designed to look accessible through hand-cut, open-sourced and reconstructed details. It includes the Air Jordan 1, Air Max 90, Air Presto, Air VaporMax and Blazer Mid.

The second, Ghosting, was designed with translucent uppers to further the idea of revealing and unite the second set of silhouettes through common materials. It includes the Converse Chuck Taylor, Zoom Fly SP, Air Force 1 Low, React Hyperdunk and Air Max 97.

All of the shoes feature touches that have become Abloh signatures, including labels calling out material stories, plus orange zip ties, which Abloh recently provided a tutorial on.

Syncing up with fashion weeks, Nike will host events in New York City and London to celebrate The Ten through presentations of the full collection and exchanges about the ideas that inspired it. The events will take place in New York City from September 6-8, 2017 at 23 Wall Street and in London from September 14-19 at NikeLab 1948 LDN.

The Air Jordan I, Blazer, Air Presto, Air Max 90 and Air VaporMax will be pre-released at the NikeLab store in New York City (September 9-13), London (September 18-22), Milan (Sepember 21-25) and Paris (September 26-30).

The full collection including all ten silhouettes will be available in November at NikeLab stores and select retailers worldwide.

Scathing 5,400-word report via The Cut's Tahirah H Scathing 5,400-word report via The Cut's Tahirah Hairston on Kerby Jean-Raymond whose label Pyer Moss appears to no longer be operational. 

Check out an excerpt below. 

Ten years in, Jean-Raymond’s star has only risen. He hangs out with celebrities (Tracee Ellis Ross, Brent Faiyaz), made a cameo on Insecure, and drives flashy cars (a McLaren 720S, an Aston Martin Superleggera, a Porsche GT3 RS). Meanwhile, his brand is nearly nonexistent.

There is no Pyer Moss boutique. The clothing celebrated on the runway was mostly not available to anybody who didn’t have a celebrity stylist to pull it for them, and company insiders complained that quality control was so uneven that at times what was produced was too flawed to be sold. Jean-Raymond sometimes missed deadlines, didn’t always pay bills, started other projects, and alienated allies. He referred to Pyer Moss as an “art project” and seemed reluctant to make practical choices. Among the fashion insiders who had cheered his rise, there has been a growing feeling that he has wasted an opportunity to build something important.

The last straw for many of his early supporters was his couture show in July 2021. Titled “WAT U IZ,” and put on in the U.S. during Paris Couture Week, it was a tribute to the various innovations that Black people have been responsible for, often without credit. The models came down the runway decked out in a jar of peanut butter and a traffic light. A lot of it wasn’t really clothing, much less couture. Even if the professional critics and other members of the fashion press seemed hesitant to publicly express their disappointment, they whispered among each other that he’d lost the plot of his brand.
