Nike introduces a new colorway for the Nike Free Flyknit Mercurial SP. Taking a cue from the Nike Free Mercurial Superfly HTM, the Dark Grey colorway brings a somber, modern theme to the popular Flyknit sneaker — appropriate for this model as a lightweight, high performance tech shoe. The knitted upper features a variety of dark grey tones that contrast with the stark white sole. Watch out for the upcoming release of the Nike Free Flyknit Mercurial SP “Dark Grey” at select Nike stores including Off The Hook in Montreal.
Recently named “M&O’s Designer of the Year,” Japanese firm Nendo has created nine pieces of chocolate art to furnish a lounge it designed for the furniture and design show Maison&Objet. The creations look more like miniature sculptures than confectioneries, with each one measuring the same dimensions at 26 x 26 x 26mm. Each one takes on a different shape with distinctive textures, such as hollow centered cubes, pointed tips, smooth and rough surfaces, each corresponding to a Japanese expression — for example, “zara-zara” has a rough, file-like surface whereas “poki-poki” is an Escher-esque box frame. The composition of ingredients for all nine designs, meanwhile, remain identical. The chocolates are being produced in a limited quantity of 400 hundred sets and will be available to guests at the Nendo lounge at Maison&Objet from January 23 to 27.
