Classic Commercial: Nike Air 180 Artist's Series

A look at one of the most creative series of commercials from Nike ever.

words // Zack Schlemmer

The Nike Air 180 just returned in two original colorways this weekend, and since it's one of my favorite shoes ever, I couldn't pass up an excuse to feature the classic runner's original commercials.  In this series of ads for the 1991 runner, Nike and Wieden + Kennedy produced one of the most creative shoe ad campaigns ever, commissioning various artists and filmmakers from around the world to create their own Air 180 commercial.  Some have cool animation, some are clever and funny, and some like David Cronenberg's are (of course) just weird as shit.  Enjoy!
