Nike and Tiffany & Co., the collaboration you wouldn’t expect. And instead…

Sometimes simplicity pays off and essentiality, more than a thousand words, is able to arouse curiosity. And that’s exactly how it is, focusing on minimal, that Nike And Tiffany & Co. have decided to communicate their imminent collaboration: a post shared by the two brands with only the image of a box. Obviously Tiffany blue.

Let me be clear, it is not a box like any other but a precious container tiffany blue, with the white swoosh in the center, which presumably holds a pair of sneakers. That’s enough to make our hands shake with excitement and want to uncover that box. But for now, we can only look and ask: what does it contain? Which model? In what colour?

«A Legendary Pair», a legendary couple and who, according to sites like HypebeastHighsnobiety or WWD, would be made based on the Nike Air Force 1. Many rumors and few certainties, including the image – fantasy or preview that has escaped the project’s secrecy network? – a pair of sneakers total black with the mustache that recalls the iconic blue of the US jewelry giant and the writing tiffany engraved on the heel and tongue.

Still on the level of hypotheses, the collection should be called «1837», a kind of celebration to the year Tiffany & Co. opened its first store in New Yorkwhile, moving on to the certainties front, this will be the luxury brand’s first foray into the world of shoes.

However, a small taste of the potential of this collaboration came in 2005 when Nicky Diamonds Of Diamond Supply Co., for an unreleased model, made a model Nike SB Dunk Low with a tone that recalled the tiffany blue.

We just have to wait to get some more details on this object of desire and to be able to see this pair of shoes which, as you would say Barney Stinson in How I Met Your MotherSara Legen… Wait for it….
