Coming soon (to China only, sorry), Nike will be dropping a dope project featuring Chinese skate store Fly and California clothing label Triumvir. Together, these three brands worked on the Nike SB “Beijing” Dunk Mid.
According to Triumvir's blog, “The inspiration and concept of the shoe was based on a Beijing native’s perspective of their own city, with the slogan skate towards Tienanmen Square.” The new sneaker is going to be a special edition for Fly’s Beijing shop. The "Beijing" Dunk Mid incorporates the following categories of what Beijing is known for into the design of the shoe: dust, traffic, highways, noodles, Tienanmen Square, and the capital of China.
The Dunk Mid uses premium tumbled leather for the black panels. The gray tones were used to symbolize the colors of the city’s high-rises and highways. The graphic on the insole is a combination of flystreetwear and Triumvir’s logo.”
