Blending Art with Sneakers
London-based Nigerian artist Olaolu Slawn is making waves in both the art and fashion worlds. Known for his bold colors, caricature figures, and graffiti-inspired style, Slawn’s work often explores race, politics, and identity. Now, he’s bringing his creative vision to the sneaker scene with a special Nike Air Max 90 collaboration.
The collection features two colorways—black and white—each covered in a paint-speckled design that reflects Slawn’s raw, street-style artistry. His cartoon-like figures, known for their defiant stares, are embossed on the heel caps and appear throughout the leather uppers. Of course, the sneakers retain the signature Air Bubble of the classic Air Max 90 silhouette.
The Olaolu Slawn x Nike Air Max 90 will first release at a London pop-up on March 1, followed by a wider drop on April 4 via Nike’s website.
