Fear Of God seems to have taken the mantle for most hyped brand from Off-White, and with great success comes another sequel for more FOG X Nike goodness. This time round, the collaboration will be for the Spring/Summer 19 campaign, focusing more heavily on two new silhouettes that have been in circulation for some time, the Nike Air Fear Of God Raid and Nike Fear Of God Moc. Let’s get into the details of the Raid first.
Largely inspired by the Nike Air Raid, Jerry Lorenzo had an immediate emotional response to the shoe. “When the kid walked in the classroom with the Air Raid, no one told me that I was supposed to like the Air Raid. I was just drawn to it, the design, the colors. It was like, oh my God, what is that?” Lorenzo recalls. “It became interconnected with all these other real emotional things that were happening at the time of the shoe.”

The Fear Of God iteration largely takes the shape and straps of the original Air Raid, but is then reimagined in the image of Fear Of God, meaning that while the shoe retains its shape, the materials and construction resemble the FOG 1s instead. The Air Fear Of God Moc is included in the collection as well, having been constructed with a Ripstop upper, midfoot strap, and heel drawstring.
A plethora of apparel options are also available, this time bearing references to basketball, including a double-hooded sweatshirt, a T-shirt, and several iterations of the shorts and pants, all emblazoned with the NBA logo on the sides.
The collection will drop on NikeLab Malaysia on Friday with prices ranging from RM 609 to RM 1135.
For more Nike releases, Yoon Ahn from AMBUSH is dropping her iteration of the Air Max 180.
