The hectic year of 2020 shook everything up for everyone. At Nike, towards the last stretch of the chaotic year, it prompted a chance to do good. They started to push their initiative "Move To Zero" to make a change for the better. The initiative plans to transition to zero carbon and zero waste to safeguard the future world without further damage to the earth's ecosystem. 

Now, with the arrival of 2021, the head honchos over at Nike are ready to take this initiative at full speed with their latest collaboration with READYMADE. 

The collaborative partnership resulted in a modernized and unique look on the classic Blazer Mid. Founded by Yuta Hosokawa, the Japanese brand has made quite a big name for itself by retooling second-hand pieces into masterpieces. Yuta Hosokawa has also famously worked with Travis Scott and Takashi Murakami that has received widespread acclaim from fans. So, this collaboration will further help him cement his brand, considering the distinct DIY appearance of the Blazer Mid.
