While t-shirts with collaboration graphic been far and a few over the last few years. No other project, with the exception of Nike Co-Lab, has resonant with the creative community. To recapitulate the success of the Co-Lab Series, Nike Sportswear announced a new initiative, Sport Is Art, for Summer 2011. Drawing both cultural influences and individual creativity, artists from the 5 continents lend their talents to the project. From the US, there is Jared Nickerson, Anthony Harrison, Denis Kegler, Leah Sheely, and Jeff Proctor. They are joined by England's Lain MacArthur, Kelvin Govey, Brazilian creative type Matheus Lopes, Spain's own Vasava, Tony Ariawan hailed from Indonesia, and finally the Canadian/German duo only known as EBOY. In ways, this collection is more than just collaborative apparels, but more of a wearable artworks highlighting up and coming individuals. The collection is currently available at Shanghai's KIN and soon to be launch at select Nike Sportswear retail locations
