In a project originally conceived approximately 5 years ago, the Nike Doernbecher Freestyle Program was a philanthropic initiate to help raise money for the Doernbecher Children’s Hospital. Its premise was to give free reign and creative control over chosen Nike models through a select few inspirational children. Unlike previous years, Nike hoped to create an even bigger splash and raise more funds by opening up the selection of shoes to include some of its most popular releases as well as adding a 6th model. The shoes include popular lifestyle models such as the Air Jordan I, Air Force 1, Free Mary Jane Slip-On as well a more technically-driven style in the Zoom Vomero+ 3. A 6th shoe also includes a commemorative anniversary Air Max 90. In a special charity event a few days ago, a handful of shoes each individually signed by Tiger Woods were auctioned off with all proceeds donated to the Doernbecher Children’s Hospital. The shoes will be available at Niketown locations as well as Nike.com.

Kaws definitely has the magic touch these days. Fresh off of his Nike Air Force 1´s “1World” success, it seems he is already working on yet another collaboration with Nike, this time a very clean colorway of the Nike Air Max 90. Coming in a white and volt colorway, these Nike Air Maxes would be a little on the unremarkable side were it not for the signature Kaws X’s being the dominating theme of these shoes. Especially noticeable on the toebox stitching, the X motif is definitely pretty strong on these kicks, even appearing on the lacelocks. There’s no word on a firm release yet, especially due to the fact that these are currently still in sample form; however, should they see release, expect popularity compared to everything else that Kaws graces with his artistic vision.
