Nike X Levi's Collaboration

The Nike x Levi's collaboration was a on a pair of jeans and a denim jacket, specifically for the Nike SB (skateboarding)Team. This was a special collaboration where stake shops around the USA only got a limited run of. Skateboarders around the world have seen the recent rise in visibility with Nike SB, this to me was a statement piece putting Nike SB in a new realm in the skateboarding world. Then again it was a limited run and in skate shops only with the Tier 0 type relationship with Nike SB. You can see this inside the jeans with the limited run of jeans marked by a number between 2000.

Nike and Levi's even made Levi's trademark label on the jeans and denim jacket specialized. The red tag on the jean's pocket stayed the same while the leather waistline marker got a special treatment along with the leather size marker on the inside of the jacket. Even inside the jeans you can see the special Team Edition line across the waistline.

This isn't the first time Nike has teamed up with a big name label to create a collaboration of clothing or in some instances shoes. The most visible of the recent creations is with Supreme, a New York street brand, along with others in the past. This is just one of the few collaborations I personally own and feel that this is one of the best collaborations that Nike has made. It combines Nike's technology and all of its means along with Levi's wearability and structure.

If you have a chance to find a shop that has these left don't be afraid to make the purchase, granted it might be pricier than your normal jeans or denim jacket. In the end though, these will quite possibly and more than likely be your favorite jeans and denim jacket. Hopefully we can see more collaborations from Nike that hold this kind of weight in the future.
