Nike Considered by Josh Spear
Nike has recently introduced a new sneaker line called Considered. They're focusing on sustainable product innovation to eliminate waste and toxic substances during the manufacturing process. This new way of manufacturing for example uses 80% less solvents and glues and because of the simpler designs with fewer production steps, there is less stitching. Nice try to be eco-friendly by Nike, although they're not the most attractive line of shoes-- The Slide Sandal seems pretty simplistic and effective though.

Nike Considered Blazer

Creative Reuse
Eric Quebral deconstructed and reconstructed this Air Max 90 box to explore the vague concept of sneaker as landscape for a recent school project. His topographical model is of a proposed running terrain. Being Earth Day today, I thought this creative reuse would be a perfect thing to share....

Zoom Stefan Janoski SB: Designer James Arizumi Interview and Sketches
One of the most well-respected pro skaters in the biz, Stefan Janoski finally got his own long-overdue shoe with Nike SB. In keeping with his relaxed, nonchalant skate style, the Zoom Janoski is a clean, comfortable and functional shoe. Nike's second signature model, it's a marked departure from their first—a Paul Rodriguez shoe which is more beefy and athletic-looking, again following P-Rod's skate style....
