For One - HTM-, Paul Brown colour or Black (HTM
air force 1 305895-001 / HTM air force 1 305895-221)
The HTM is in a manner
of speaking empirical project because the nike
investigates the needs of the market.
What kind of model are those?
First of all , each pair is individually numbered.
All of the HTM series are way beyond the regular
nikeshoes or nike air force one series.
The quality , couture , finition and
the overall look are really
symbol of "design" and "solidity"
.
As usual , the HTM limited series , i believe
to 1500 pairs mainly in japan, Hong Kong , France
and London, is another marketing and collaboration
by nike with famous DJ / designer in Tokyo :
Hiroshi Fujirawa
indeed the HTM signature stands for:
1- H "Hiroshi Fujirawa" :The most
celebrated d.j.-turned-designer in Tokyo is
a thirty-seven-year-old named Hiroshi Fujiwara,
whose name is spoken with something like reverence
by Japanese fashion sorts.
Fujiwara travelled to clubs like Heaven in London
or Paradise Garage in New York in the eighties,
and then introduced Japanese audiences not just
to Western club music but to fashion labels
like Stüssy.
These days, he helps nike out with marketing
ideas (he prefers not to call himself a consultant,
just a friend, but he is the kind of friend
who has flown in the company's private
jet) and writes a column of fashion recommendations
for a magazine called Men's Non-No.
For your info : Fujiwara recently held an Internet
auction of his possessions, in which a nylon
jacket with a fabric insert on one sleeve, a
piece he had both designed and worn, sold for
1.1 million yen, nearly eight and a half thousand
dollars.
2-T "Tinker L. Hatfield: Vice President,
Design and Special Projects nike Inc. Beaverton,
Oregon
Creativity is a two-step process for Tinker
:
- Listen, when you collaborate for the design
of a shoe (for instance with Michael Jordan,
when designing the nike air jordan I).
- Inspiration, you never know where your ideas
come from ( the design of the nike air jordan
VI was inspired, in part, by the "Batboot",
Tinker designed Michael Keaton in Batman, and
the Jordan VII was a colorful poster for National
Public Radio that Tinker saw while wandering
around Portland)
Tinker Hatfield's creations include
air jordan basketball shoes, Air Max running
shoes, and Andre Agassi footwear.
3-"Mark Parker" nike's brand president
and one of a handful of executives who report
