TOM SACHS X NIKECRAFT

The NikeCraft General Purpose Shoe is the epitome of the Tom Sachs design philosophy. Stripped down to its essentials, the shoe is built to last, firmly placing the concept of durability as the first step of re-using and re-cycling.

Just because you can doesn’t always mean you should. Resist newness for newness’ sake. Build on a proven foundation an innovate incrementally. Study what came fore: its shape, its weight, its colors who it’s for and what it does. Use, observe, design, build, test, fail repeat. True development is the practice of continuous refinement.

This sneaker is a product of our ongoing research into how our bodies meet the ground. We opened up the archive, wore it out, stripped it down, kept what worked and added what was missing in pursuit of a perennial sneaker. An even-better sneaker. A never-settle sneaker. A round-the-clock, made-to-last, built-to-code sneaker.

It’s not what you do, it’s how you do it.
