Toronto shop Better Gift Shop was founded in 2017, and has already dug deep into the world of sneaker collabs. This week, they’ve teased their debut release with Nike, taking on the Air Max Dn8 for the first project.
Better Gift Shop operates as a hub for cultural, social, and artistic ideas to come to life. Founded in Toronto, Canada in 2017, the premise of the brand is that of a gift shop to a fictional museum, and acts as a platform for art and an exhibit to many sources of inspiration. Better is a frequent collaborator, tying their simple yet noteworthy branding to a wide range of products, all of which come about through their local community.
This week, Better has teased their next sneaker release, which marks their debut with Nike. Taking on the brand’s Air Max Dn8, an evolution of the Dn that released for Air Max Day 2024, their post showing off the shoe teased the theme of revenge. The shoe itself features a gradient color scheme, starting in light grey at the toes and turning dark grey at the heels. The silhouettes adds a lined pattern to the upper, akin to wind lines on a weather map, and mixes in their signature blue shade to the lacing system, tongue branding, and Air bubbles.
