Yesterday you saw the amazing Nike Dunk Hi FLOM “Futura” that was created as a part of the Lance Armstrong x Nike Sportswear LIVESTRONG Stages Collection. That sample was available for bid, but both will drop in July to coincide with the annual Tour de France, rebranded as the LIVESTRONG Greatest Hits Pack. Just as Futura’s effort was a reprisal of a legendary collabo from his past, this Nike Air Force 1 Low “Mister Cartoon” offers a black and yellow glimpse at the past inside the present. This time around, the details have been laser-etched, including a spider webbed toe and Los Angeles cityscape plus flowy lines on the side panels. The Swoosh is a smooth gradient from black to yellow that inverts the transition between side and rear panels, while an ‘LA’ embroidery on the rear quarter completes the look.

To raise awareness for the global fight against cancer, Nike Sportswear has re designed eight of its most coveted and iconic collaborations from the last decade and will re-release them as part of this exclusive LIVESTRONG Collection. Split into two installments, the first four-shoe pack drops in July during the Tour de France and features what can only be described as ‘holy grails’ of the sneaker scene.

Only one name holds the same revered stature in the sneaker game as Mister Cartoon and that would be East Coast brethren, Futura. A long-term collaborative partner, NY’s Futura has worked with Nike on numerous occasions providing design innovation at every step. For LIVESTRONG, he updated his most desired shoe, the FLOM (aka For the Love Of Money). Originally released by Nike SB and limited to only 24 pairs, the FLOM was gifted to friends leaving collectors yearning all over the world. This July, they’ll get their chance to make amends.
