Broadening its customizable range on what appears to be on a monthly basis, the Nike By You initiative has racked up a handful of collaborations in its day, taking on interesting partnerships with from Levi’s to Cactus Plant Flea Market, and more recently the NBA. And to start off the month of November on a good note, the Swoosh is now making way for their personalization platform to turn towards South African street artist Karabo Poppy to apply her talents to the classic Air Force 1 Low. Every detail from the symbols, to the vibrant palettes, to the mosaic patterns, all pay homage to her local roots, and draw heavy influence from that of African beaded bracelets, as well as barbershop and beauty salon posters that adorn the streets of South Africa. Customers will be able to choose between three colors for their silhouette including a tan, maize yellow, and natural white, and let their playful freedom take charge by adding a plethora of heritage accents from comb dubraes, to all-over embroideries, to boisterous patches that cover the Swoosh logos. Grab a closer look at your the potential options here below, and note that they will be available on Nike.com November 7th.
