NIKE Launches Summer 2011 Liberty of London Pack

May 2011, Singapore – The Liberty of London pack from Nike is back this Summer.  Previous incarnations released in the spring of 2008, which includes the original Liberty Dunks (and Blazers that followed in 2009) were an immediate hit across the world.  With limited numbers produced, many people missed the opportunity to own a pair of the exclusive and highly sought – after kicks.

This Summer, the Liberty of London pack features 2 unique and colourful prints, each with its own story to tell.

Tatum is a classic ditsy micro-floral print, while Kara’s Trees has an impressionist-style tornado of pointillist leaves, creating a patterned almost textile-like landscape.  The vibrant colour palettes and famous florals present in Liberty’s prints juxtapose perfectly with the clean design lines of the Nike Blazer (Mid and Low versions), Dunk Hi Skinny Premium and Air Max One, making them an instant must‐have for any fashionistas and avid collectors of limited‐edition sportswear.
