If you thought two-way collabs were cool, wait till you see the three ways! You see, Nike and Sacai go way back at this point – back to 2015 to be specific. Meanwhile, JPG and Sacai are no strangers to each other either. And now, the three are once again coming together to give us another Jean Paul Gaultier Sacai Nike Vaporwaffle! So, let’s find out what’s up with this collaboration, shall we? Hint: You might need to buy a quilt to match, just saying!
A Little Recap of the Brands’ Relationships!
Before we get into the collaboration itself, we gotta talk about the brands’ relationships with each other. First, we have Nike and Sacai who first linked up back in 2015, and the rest was history. Then, we have Sacai and JPG who first connected in 2021 when Chitose Abe was the guest designer in his AW21 Haute Couture collection!
And if you’ve been around in the last few years, you’d remember that the three brands collaborated in 2021! The pair in question was the Jean Paul Gaultier Sacai Nike Vaporwaffle Sesame. A year later, the trio gave us the same shoe in black and white, which somehow looked pretty cool. The kicks featured the classic Sacai double-everything and JPG insole inscriptions. And now, they’re back with an even more interesting take on these babies!
Jean Paul Gaultier Sacai Nike Vaporwaffle Woven
No, this is not a release for your grandma… Well, it is if she’s stylish enough. So, in 2023, the Jean Paul Gaultier Sacai Nike partnership is back with a low-top Vaporwaffle. However, it’s not any less packed with details. For starters, the collab comes in two colorways: white and grey, and a mix of yellow, green, red, and blue.
Now, when it comes to design, that’s when things get interesting. The kicks feature a woven design with a mix of materials like suede, leather, and textiles. So at first glance, the kicks look like a patchwork quilt. And in all honesty? We don’t even think that’s a bad thing!
Release Info
The Jean Paul Gaultier Sacai Nike Vaporwaffle Woven will drop on November 22, 2023, for $250. These babies will be worth the investment though, because you can flip the white pair for about $445. And the multicolor pair can go for $441 on average in resale! So, how can you score these babies?
