Nike Vandal Low NYC – ‘Catch a Cab’ – House of Hoops Exclusive

Nike Vandal Low NYC – ‘Catch a Cab’ – House of Hoops Exclusive

vandal_low_nyc_cab_1

A name change notwithstanding, Nike’s latest House of Hoops-exclusive stayed true to its original design and we can’t blame them.  The Nike Vandal Low NYC ‘Catch a Cab’ is clearly designed by the seasoned drivers on the streets of the city that never sleeps, but let’s take a second to overview the design inspiration anyway.  Both the taxi yellow on the Swoosh and laces and the checkered piping and strap clearly borrow from the Big Apple’s costly cars for hire, and there are a few other references.  The tongue tag rocks a Statue of Liberty insignia with ‘On/Off Duty’ details, while the insole is marked with ‘Nike Fare’, a takeoff on cab rates reformulated for roundball.  These are set to drop on Friday, June 19th at Foot Locker’s HoH specialty stores, but you might have to walk if you wanna be sure you can afford the shoes.
