Another new Nike innovation, Nike Lunarlon, would discount nike also make its first appearance in a basketball shoe as a key performance element of a design that borrowed elements from a shoe that, at the time, was only the stuff of legend, the Nike Mag.

"I was looking at how athletes tape their ankles." That X' arrived at a moment when knowledge of self and roughneck aesthetics united.
