Often Nike's shoe collections take inspiration from popular fashion movements, famous faces and even cultural moments but this time the brand diverged to offer a line of sneakers inspired by food. This collection of sneakers for the fall 2015 season offer shoes themed after popular dessert items in well known cities such as Paris, Shanghai and New York.
Different cities are known for different desserts that are popular to that region's cuisine and culture. Paying tribute to these foods is this sneaker line that features retro silhouettes with elevated soles, thick laces and a relaxed aesthetic. Each shoe pays homage to a different dessert infusing the colors into the sneaker's overall aesthetic. For example, the sneaker inspired by Parisian macarons features an elegant lavender purple hue.
