Nike has come out with a new pack of sneakers that are inspired by different major cities that are a part of the EU, with one design being a pair of London sneakers that features a unique watercolor theme.
The silhouette used for the design is the ever-popular Air More Uptempo, which includes bold bubble letter branding on the sides of the uppers. These letters are used to spell out the word "AIR," with the first letter taking over the area of the uppers near the heel, while the other letters get smaller to fit into the different areas.
The watercolor theme accents the letters on the uppers and the surrounding areas, with a stark white base providing plenty of contrast.
