Nike Basketball‘s “NOLA Gumbo League” release pays homage to Nike Sportswear‘s “Crescent City”. Inspired by the Big Easy’s festive atmosphere, this collection includes this year’s version of the classic Air Up, the Air Force 1 CMFT, and the brand new Flystepper 2K3. The Air Up ’14 represents the city’s boiled crawfish with a crustacean-red upper complete with water droplets and a steamy graphic, the AF1 CMFT is marked by a gumbo-like collage of NSW’s most memorable uppers – everything from Foamposite and cork materials to elephant, gator, pony hair and safari motifs appear. Finally, the new Flystepper 2K3 is a casual high-top featuring the perforated quarter panels of the Zoom Flight 2K3 – takes cues from the area’s Alligator Mississippiensiswith faux-alligator strap enclosures and a raised synthetic covering the toe. The entire “Crescent City” collection drops on February 13 online and at select NSW stockists.
