The delicious designs for Nike Air Max & Air Force 1 apparel line by Barcelona-based agency Vasana are inspired by candies to give the collection a sweeter touch. Continuing Nike's use of bold colors and hip graphics, the creative team at Vasana released a series of amazing illustration for the famous shoe brand t-shirts.
Transforming the shoes into a variety of sweets, the agency created a tempting design theme. One sneaker becomes a glossy, red lollipop while another a chocolate bar with strawberry filling. My favorite is a bubble gum dispenser full of colorful sneakers.
Thanks to the inventive minds at Vasana, Nike has once again probed how they master the art of creating playful and youthful sneaker-inspired apparel lines.
