New York and Chicago were both part of Nike’s For Love of the City Pack early this year. Two of the nation’s three largest cities, we weren’t surprised to see them back for the latest City Pack. For the other two entrants, Nike picked two new cities, including one unlikely choice. Atlanta is a hotspot of sneakerhead culture in the south and this crazy black Big Nike High with its eye-catching textile side panels goes with the classic Hawks colourway of red, yellow and white for accents. It’s the Long Beach model in white, black and purple that’s somewhat puzzling. Aside from Snoop’s Chucks and of course Proper, it’s not the most obvious choice, but now the LBC has a pair of Nikes to call their own. You can do the same, just head to a local Nike Sportswear retailer, like their flagship store in New York. Via 21Mercer
