24 Kilates recently had the grand opening to its Bangkok store location and to celebrate, it launched The Mine range, which features a custom [Nike](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nike-sb-som-tum-dunks) [Air Max 1](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/con-mi-familia) pack. The design draws assistance from SBTG, a Singaporean artist, creating two Air Max 1 models to make up the STAMPEDE series. In addition to the footwear, there is also a New Era cap collaboration featuring the [Camper](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pelotissima) model.

Overall, the capsule draws inspiration from the artist and label's shared admiration for militaristic design. The footwear is adorned in a military-themed camouflage print all throughout the uppers in a color palette that highlights black and beige hits. The two colorways include a black iteration with a furry Swoosh and black and yellow camo design or the beige iteration with green camo prints throughout.
