OBJ’s name will most certainly have rung up in the sneaker world a few times as more and more collaborations with Nike have surfaced, and though he may bear 0 resemblance to the scene here as we don’t have American football, his collabs can certainly pull a little bit of weight.
Take for example, his reiteration of the Air Max 720. It’s called “Young King Of The Drip,” and with a title like that, commands a level of individuality that not many are willing to pull off. The 720’s upper gets a whole different remake as featuring more complex looking panels as well as a summer colour block all round that combines a unique tiger camo print,with Fuchsia rear and front mudguards in suede Volt highlights throughout the shoe.
Bottom remains relatively similar, having been done with a white plastic midsole plate, translucent 720 Air Max unit, with the outsole now featuring a more pebbled tread pattern. The tongue also features interchangeable velcro patches for an added level of customisation ala Air Max 97/1 Sean Wotherspoon.
The Air Max 720 ‘OBJ’ will release on the 21st of June at Nike.com for a price of around RM 800.
