Nike Sportswear does not shy away from references to Kanye West, and it seems like the lifestyle imprint is only getting bolder with the blatant nods as of late. The new Nike Marxman already has a bit of Mr. West in its DNA from the forefoot strap to the high-arching collar. The laceless design is now more Nike than ever before, but when paired with the iconic “Pure Platinum” colorway, it’s hard to dismiss its correlation to previous models. From this pair to the Nike Air Entertainer, it appears that the Swoosh still has not fully gotten over Mr. West moving away. Are you a fan of this look or do you think the Pure Platinum lineage should stop now that Kanye is entering yet another season with the Adidas?
