Loopwheeler for Nike

2012-01-17T09:42:00.012+01:00

just got this sweat from Nikes Loopwheeler range. ultra soft cotton
made on special knitting machines, that are only in use in Japan. for
more informations check LOOPWHEELER.

"all Loopwheeler products are made with fabric knitted by a machine called
"Loopwheel". only a few of these machines are operating in Japan today.
they can knit only a meter of fabric per hour. far from the main stream
mass production, this fabric is made by these slow-rotating machines."

one as this fits the Hyperfuse look very well. unfortunately there's
no reflective material available.

anyone remembers the Nike Air Flow from back in the days? the year was 1989
and Nike was on top of the game with their running shoes. the Air Flow was ultra
lightweight due to its nylon/ lycra sock like upper. you can see some design
influences that were taken from the '89 Pegasus (although it was originally
released 1988), and it was the precursor of the Presto that would come 10 years
later. now the Flow is back..
Nike took its Lunar sole and put a Fuse upper on it that looks like the Flow. release
is set for summer 2011, i'll get the black one for sure!
