Nike has just added another iconic institute to its ever-growing roster, teaming up for an official collaboration with your kid brother’s favourite gun-game Fortnite.
Technically, Fortnite has worked with Nike in the past, back when Travis Scott and Giannis Antetokounmpo featured as characters in the game, both sporting their respective Jordan collabs.
Thanks to a teaser from the Swoosh, we can expect an IRL collaboration between Battle Royale and big-bubbled kicks, when Fortnite presents its version of a currently unnamed Air Max silhouette later this month.
Titled “Airphoria”, the partnership will entail an in-game “sneaker hunt” alongside the physically available wares. Images have already surfaced of the capsule’s apparel, showing simple black and white tees with both entities’ logos on the chest.
The collaboration is set to launch on June 20th.
