Nike has provided official timing for its Cactus Plant Flea Market (CPFM) and Swarovski crystal-covered Dunk sneakers, which will drop on November 18, 2020. The latest effort with CPFM also includes a black Just Do It black hoodie detailed with a crystal-covered version of Nike’s fame Just Do It tagline.
The blinged-out sneaker features an over-sized Swoosh, borrowed from CPFM designer Cynthia Lu‘s recent interpretation of Nike’s Blazer, plus an extra padded tongue and detachable double lace flaps. According to Nike press, “All the angles of the crystals help the shoe become something like a disco ball.”
The sneaker is accompanied by a green Just Do It dust bag and a crystal-covered smiley face hang tag.
Press on the effort reads: “If there is a connective thread in Cactus Plant Flea Market’s ongoing footwear collaborations, it is in finding ways to celebrate a human, optimistic viewpoint. Air and sunshine remain themes, with variations of CPFM’s unique DIY styling articulating the vibe each time. With the Nike Dunk, CPFM toys with literal interplay among air, sunshine and shoe through a dynamic light refraction created with Swarovski crystals.”
Lu tapped music creative Steve Lacy for campaign images as shot by Bronx-born photographer Renell Medrano.
As of now there’s no pricing for the sneaker or the hoodie, but both items will launch on November 18 exclusively on cactusplantfleamarket.com.
