The Atmos Nike Air Max Animal Pack Puts a Twist on Camo

— February 7, 2013 — Fashion
Your entire outfit can be riddled with camoflauge if you take out a subscription on each piece of the Atmos Nike Air Max 1 Animal Pack. Atmos is a Japanese boutique who frequently collaborates with Nike. Tapping Japanese sneaker sensibilities is becoming more and more the norm with sneaker and street wear companies -- Nike’s collaboration with Atmos continues the craze.

The Atmos Nike Air Max 1 Animal Pack features two sneakers, t-shirts and hats which all bear one of two camouflage tones. There is the sandy camouflage, which also bears cheetah prints, then the more jungle-like green and black camouflage. Enthusiasts can grab matching hats and t-shirts to complete the look. And because the camouflage prints aren’t overbearing, it’s conceivable all three pieces could be worn together.
