Nike footwear design collaborations and programs

Overview

Nike has announced a series of footwear initiatives, including a collaboration with the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) and the launch of the Air Works design program. The Air Works program aims to engage international designers to co-create future Air Max silhouettes using 3D-printed technology.

The MoMA collaboration focuses on the Air Rift 2, a reimagined version of the 2002 split-toe silhouette. The collection features two primary colorways: a ‘Hyper Verde’ option inspired by pop art screen prints, and a ‘Black’ version with ‘Cyber’ panels and ‘Light Fuchsia’ accents. The design includes the MoMA logo on the midfoot, insoles, and translucent outsoles. The release is expected through the MoMA Design Store, the Nike Snkrs app, and select global retailers.
