NIKE X HIDEOUT FOOTSCAPE WOVEN

these are the original version of the Nike Woven Footscape.

however, we are talking about THE sneaker of the moment. The Hideout.

so much talk has been going on about this sneaker, it's kindda hard to just roll them all into one. it's basically a work of art, that y'all have to admire...and just BUY. no questions asked. but if you're one of the more serious type of collectors, and would wanna know ALL bout the shoe in the current spotlight, then we don't have much of a choice, now do we? lol.

behold the first ever collaboration of Hideout with Nike...

THE HIDEOUT AIR FOOTSCAPE

“Built upon the original 1995 Air Footscape outsole, this new style features a woven-together upper inspired by the Air Woven, thus allowing breathability. The asymmetrical lacing relieves top-of-foot pressure and the elimination of liner leather increases flexibility.

The ponyskin application seemed like a natural solution - not only befitting the shoe but also reflecting the ideas behind THE HIDEOUT’s interior. A matching pouch in ponyskin, suede and nylon has also been made for us by Porter Yoshida Japan, continuing with the theme of mixing rustic with technology.”

you might wanna check out the Hideout's official site for interviews with the hardcore experts!

these are the modern-day, & not to mention "all grown-up" version of those fuzzy slippers your mom bought for you when you were a kid. they'll make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside (because you were able to actually afford them and get your own pair & not share), not to mention totally OC on not getting them wet or dirty. which kindda makes me wonder if they'll smell like wet dog if you really DO get them wet? hmmm....

this may be Nike's first team up with Hideout, but from all the rad reviews this baby's been getting, we shouldn't be surprised if they come up with a PART II!!

for now, let's all just be happy with this first kick from their creative minds and await the drop-off tomorrow, September 9, 2006 at The Hideout in London. and will then be moving on to select sneaker specialty stores worldwide on September 16th.

*word is these babies were unexpectedly dropped off in Singapore two months ago before the scheduled release in the UK*
