Nike Sportswear – Nike Sportswear Store Tokyo
A next phrase in its global launch campaign, Nike Sportswear is scheduled to open its newest flagship location at the heart of Harajuku district of Tokyo this Saturday, October 11th. The new store will reside in an iconic contemporary structure on Cat Street of Harajuku. Described as “stealth bomber-like building in folded black steel”, the building’s prism-like exterior with a myriad levels interior was created by architecture legend Tadao Ando (å®‰è—¤å¿ é›„), and served as the temporary flagship for hh style + Armani Casa project in 2006. In it, Nike Sportswear Store Tokyo will offer exclusive products and services, such as the new NIKEiD Studio. It will also be the only location in Asia to carry the complete Nike Sportswear NSW collection as well as seasonal Japan-only merchandises.
In commemoration of this grand event, Nike arranged a evening long opening reception this Friday, October 10th, that will take place first at the store, then move to BELLESALLE Harajuku event space a block away. Special guests and live performances by Seiko Ito & POMERANIANS, Latin Quarters, Dub Master X, and much more.
