Virgil Abloh and Nike have produced several sneaker collaborations since 2017, and it looks like they’ll soon add at least seven more to their long list of projects.
The Off-White designer launched his interactive « public domain » website that is supposed to recreate Abloh’s computer screen and gives fans a look behind the scenes of the Off-White x Nike design archives. The webpage is filled with a variety of multimedia files, including examples of some of Abloh’s most sought-after collaborations with Nike, behind-the-scenes pictures, and more.
Abloh has not only taken a deeper dive into previous Off-White x Nike projects, but also seven pixelated sneaker pictures with the text « ACTUALLY PENDING » spiced up at the bottom. While no clearer shots are currently available on the shoes, the set appears to include two new yellow-based Nike Air Force 1s, two new iterations of tennis legend Serena Williams’ NikeCourt Flare 2s, the « Canary Yellow » Off-White x Air Jordan 1 , which was originally spotted during Abloh’s Figures of Speech exhibit at Chicago’s Museum of Contemporary Art, and finally two Futura x Off-White x Nike dunks that were featured on the Spring 19 Off-White runway show.
