NIKE x JAPAN.


Here at 707 we're suckers for anything related to Japan (being half-Japanese might have something to do with it) so it's great to see that Nike's into celebrating Japanese culture these days... Just arrived in store; the Airmax 360 from the Koinoburi Pack. The design reflects the fish-shaped kites called Koinoburi (Koi means carp) flown every year in Japan to celebrate their children's day holiday.

The top of the Airmax is all in reflective 3M with a graphic fish-scale print (repeated on the insole) with purple and blue accents, and a subtle irridescent black (changes colour at different angles) around the edge... Exclusive to 707 and 707ANNEX in Indonesia Rp. 1.799.000, stocks limited...


Also in, the special edition 10AC Nike Free 5.0. Designed as part of a martial art collection for MMA fighter Caol Uno, it has an all-over semi-gloss white finish and subtle detailing... Again exclusive to 707 and 707ANNEX... (thanks to FRESHNESS for images)

Next to drop will be the Kakigori (shaved ice) pack, named after a popular summer ice-dessert in Japan - we should have the Airmax 1 and Court Force... Images soon..
