Not many of us are into name tags, especially the kind you're sometimes forced to wear at local functions and gatherings. We don't want to wear our names around like kids, but Nike sees a cash grab in the idea, banking on those who'd like a name tag on their sneakers, because that's a lot cooler.
Perhaps these sneakers can take the place of sticky name tags for you that you wear at social events and functions, if you don't mind people staring down to read your name. There are real world applications that aren't just reliant on the cool factor, like scribbling important information or letting the world know these sneakers belong to you.
Let's take a closer look at the Air Force 1 Name Tag. We have seen this nametag themed sneakers before, but there's a bit more detailing this time around. The uppers come decked in leather, and the swoosh has a layered effect, with a black swoosh taking up almost complete residence on a white swoosh. Beneath the name tag the tongue is made from nylon. "Hello" doesn't just appear on the tongue but the back heel and laterals feature the greeting.
The Air Force 1 Name Tag will be available soon from Nike.
