The correlation between mental and physical, mind and body, interior and exterior, how we feel and how we present ourselves to the world, is an inherently human in nature.

The success of Nike is in no small part due to a deep understanding of this quality. In the same manner as aesthetic choices such as color, length, fabric, etc. can communicate the inner nature of the wearer to the beholder, something as minimal as a sneaker can communicate spirit and essence. This shoot captures, in both form and content, precisely how a sneaker can transcend the realm footwear to become something profoundly human.
