    Wow…As always, James Jean’s work is simply stunning. Who’d have thought he could make something as ugly and coporate and vile as Nike into something so beautiful?

    I love the idea of Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf stretching before the race combined with the futuristic theme.

    I love the idea of Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf stretching before the race combined with the retrofuturistic theme.

    That’s a pretty poster. I wish it wasn’t for Nike, but it’s still really beautiful.
