NYLON Magazine x Nike
Jul 2, 2009

Introduced on the basketball court in 1985, the Nike Dunk Hi evolved to become a symbol of self expression. Along with the Nike Windrunner, these icons of Nike’s design heritage have bridged the gap between sport and culture. “The Dunk has been a part of so many diverse cultures, stories, and movements. Bringing NYLON and the Nike Dunk Hi together is another great chapter in the Dunk’s history,” says Jesse Leyva, Design Director of Nike Sportswear.
Crafted in nylon with reflective details that spell out the magazine’s name, the bold Pink, Blue, Orange, Yellow, and Green hues were chosen because they are bold, modern, and ever present within the pages of the magazine. Following suit, the apparel design team fashioned the Nike Windrunner in the same tonal colors adding a piece to a collection that demands attention.
