The concept behind Nike’s Space Race 2020 campaign is to visualize running in the year 2020. Last year, 18 designers and artists created a series of posters that featured illustrations such as rocket shoes, man races and a modernized little red riding hood.
Abstract icons that represent the future, space travel and technology were used to portray messages like Nike’s classic Just Do It slogan. This year, the Space Race 2020 posters have completed their orbital rounds and will be descending back to earth in wearable mediums that include t-shirts, hoodies and sweaters. The hoody is a teaser of what Nike has to offer.
This collection is an Asia Pacific exclusive and will be available at Nike Sport Culture stores.

Vans recently teamed up with premium Japanese fashion retailer Beams and Madsaki to produce a Slip-On and a Sk8-Hi. The kicks feature a cycling-devil print on the uppers, as well as a “Act Local, Think Global” message printed on the front of the mid-soles.
“The ‘think global act local‘ message printed on the toe sums up the ethic behind Madsaki’s life and art. As an NYC bike courier in the ’90s he came to conceive of himself as a path through which currents of energy and inspiration surge from person to person. The individual becomes a space in which life passes through, along the way wiring together a greater global consciousness.” - via slamxhype
