A collaboration in the most intimate of ways, Samuel Ross’ divisive Swoosh collaboration, the A-COLD-WALL x Nike Vomero 5, gets turned upside-down with color thanks to its latest touch-up by legendary artist Damien Hirst. Made specially for music multi-hyphenate Skinny Macho, the pair arrives as a 1-of-1 with leaps and bounds more vibrancy than the silhouette has seen since its debut. Much like the designer’s own dyed takes released in limited quantities, the pair transforms across each and every accent though now in the mold of Hirst’s own style. His maximalist and dramatic use of tonality are translated quite perfectly to the footwear canvas as hits of red, blue, orange, pink, and more splatter across the entire upper with almost no accent — save for the lining, laces, and topmost part of the tongue — falling to the wayside. With many a custom surely on the way, feast your eyes on the painfully exclusive pair right here, and keep it tuned in as more images arise on this surprise piece of art.
