The Hue Interviews Air Yeezy 2 Designer Nathan Van Hook

Tinker Hatfield. Eric Avar. Nathan Van Hook? The first two names have been Nike legends for decades, but NVH has only been with Nike since 2008 – but his track record thus far puts him on pace to forging a legacy as strong as Tinker and Eric. Sneaker News had a chance to sit down with NSW’s Senior Footwear Designer Nathan Van Hook a couple of years back to discuss his design of the Aina Chukka, but more recently, The Hue of Canada got to chat about one of the most polemic yet praised designs in Nike history – the Air Yeezy 2. Among other details, Nathan notes how Kanye West himself oversaw all the details and construction of the design. This is truly a can’t-miss piece if you’re a true nut over NSW and the label’s most valuable assets, so head on over to The Hue for the entire feature and let us know what you think!
