From plastic to cotton, from translucent to glossy, from modern to vintage: Jun Takahashi reworks a famous silhouette from Nike’s archive.

After the FW18 show in June, Undercover presents new colorways of the next sneaker in collaboration with Nike. The model might remind you to the Tailwind (1979) with some plastic grafts in the heel area looking like "wings". The black/blue/white and yellow/gray/black uppers in suede and nylon are now joined by three new colorways: green/white/black, red/white/black and sail/yellow/white.

The release of the new Nike Tailwind x Undercover is scheduled for Spring/Summer 2019. Is this going to be the best Jun Takahashi sneaker ever?
