Nike sacai x Nike

In one of the biggest collabs in recent years, Nike reached out to Japanese luxury fashion brand Sacai to create some of the most hyped releases to come out of 2019 and 2020.

The collaboration between Sacai x Nike first came in 2015 through the release of a set of women's exclusive laceless Nike Air Max 90s and Dunks. This release received mix reviews from sneakerheads internationally but was well received in Japan, where Sacai's founder Chitose Abe was already making waves.

Fast-forward to 2018 and pairs of the Sacai x Nike LDWaffle and Blazer were seen during Paris Fashion Week. These pairs brought Sacai's trademark splicing techniques and applied them to some classic Nike silhouettes. The result was a frenzy!

When the collaboration finally released in 2019 it sold out instantly. Due to a number of re-releases and new colorways popping up, this collab remained one of the biggest of 2019 and 2020.

What makes the collab so unique is the way is splices Nike silhouettes together to create something brand-new. With overlapping swooshes, the double tongue and deconstructed elements, every Sacai x Nike release is a unique take unlike anything we've seen.

A number of incredible colorways also help make the Sacai x Nike collection so popular. The Sacai x Nike LDV Waffle Daybreak Blue is one of the most iconic of the whole collection, or for something more understated there is the Sacai x Nike Blazer Mid White which offers subtle detailing.

With the release of the Sacai x Nike Vaporwaffle, and hints at the release of a Blazer Low, this partnership is definitely not slowing down anytime soon.
