Nike announces details for their upcoming Sacai collab.

Sacai's Nike LDWaffle and Blazer Mid collabs - both of which debuted at sacai's SS19 runway show in Paris - will be releasing globally this month in limited quantities. The first global drop is set for May 16, followed by another release through select Nike retailers at the end of the month.

Per Nike:

"Fashion designer Chitose Abe of sacai approaches collaborations with a distinct clarity: She looks to find a genuine connection that allows her to create something new and unexpected. Her design itself balances two ideas: stability and betrayal. Abe's aim is to simultaneously give light to the familiar and the new."

For example, Abe employs her signature ethos on the Nike x sacai LDWaffle by pulling two heritage Nike silhouettes into a single hybrid form. The "betrayal" elements of this exercise include doubled elements, like the Swoosh and tongue, as well as elongated midsoles. Abe delivers "stability" through the familiar retro color scheme.

The Nike x sacai LDWaffle and Nike x sacai Blazer Mid release globally on May 16 and May 30, respectively, at select Nike retailers listed below.
