A video of the Nike flagship store in the heart of Harajuku district in Tokyo including an interview with its architect Masamichi Katayama courtesy of Cool Hunting.

It's probably the best known 'tag line' of our generation and it came directly from the founder of arguably the most respected ad agency in the world (Wieden + Kennedy). Click here to see how Dan Wieden came up with 'Just Do It' for Nike.

While I think that making more than one of these holiday MVPuppets videos borders on too much, I gotta appreciate the writing that went into this skit.

Saw the homie Victor tweet this... FTW for LeBron and Nike, for sure.

Nike has an interesting section up on their site titled "History of Flight." As the title suggests, its a documentation of every Jordan from 1985 until now. Each year is complimented by a representative graphic...check it out here.

Nike goes green with their new packaging.  Revolving around the concepts of "lightness and sustainability," the package is made from recycled cardboard and ink.  Each package has universal graphics and the specifics (size, style) are hand written. Neat.

In High School coppin J's was more than a pastime, it was an art form. Knowing where to go, who to call, making the connections and securing your shoes was a learned skill that we came to master over time. The pinnacle possession, and the most sought after Jordan of the time was made of two symbols. An X and an I. Standing for the number 11, the Jordan XI's were the defining kicks for us in 2000-2001. It's a no brainer Nike would re-release them for another go round, dropping November 27th.

 

Cool viral video from Nike.
