Riccardo Tisci Nike Air Zoom Legend

Nike continues to tap fashion designers for its sportswear styles, again linking up with Riccardo Tisci for a NikeLab silhouette. The new Chelsea boot-looking shoe, called the Air Zoom Legend according to Vogue, is set to release this week.

Per the fashion publication's exclusive on this new Tisci model, the sneaker will launch first at NikeLab 21 Mercer in New York City on Nov. 11, with a wider release to follow later this year.

Vogue also alludes to more to come from Tisci and Nike this year, with the designer saying he's open to working with the Swoosh on future projects.

Tisci's previous Nike creations include bold remixes of the Air Force 1 and the Dunk.

UPDATE 11/9: A Nike press release calls this shoe the Chelsea Chukka by Riccardo Tisci, a name that makes more sense than the Air Zoom Legend (a moniker used by an old Kobe takedown model).
