NEW - NIKE AIR MAX 90 - NA'VI AVATAR

NIKE AIR MAX 90
NA'VI AVATAR


Mentalkicks offers us a peek into a special pair of Nike’s Air Max 90, which takes inspiration from the Na’vi (the blue people from Avatar). Its rumored that only less than 5 pairs of these were produced, and at the moment it doesn’t seem like they’ll see a wider release. For those interested, a size 9 is being made available here.(Mentalkicks.com)












“Avatar” destroyed box office records last year, and even well into 2010. As the biggest box office smash ever, it’s only fitting that Nike paid a little tribute to it with one of its classics, the Air Max 90. While the “Iron Man” Dunk SB is designed as an ode to Tony Starks’ special suit, the “Na’vi” colorway on this shoe shows love to the blue inhabitants of Pandora.
The uppers are dressed in a very unique print, which shows scales similar to a crocodile. Blue is the base color, but purple, teal, green and black all help out, adding a very realistic element to the skin. This look as obviously modeled after the Na’vi’s skin. The midsole combines white and blue, and yellow laces represent the characters’ eyes. For now it looks as though these will remain a sample, but you can grab the aforementioned Dunks later this year if you’re trying to make a cinema-sneaker connection. (Nikekicks.com)



I think I found the perfect Tee to rock with the Na'vi's.

Portland based CPTL who brought us the famous “Dunks n’ Jordans” shirt is back at it with a different meaning on the term “Nike Head” than underground artist Lexicon probably had in mind.
CPTL has several new sneaker inspired T-shirts available now including two colors of “Nike Head” at Karmaloop starting at $31.icon
