Don't Sleep On This: CLOT x Nike Tennis Classic AC TZ Museum Edition @ Juice KL 26/02

Remember the CLOT x Nike Tennis Classic AC release in Juice KL last month? Looks like another round of release coming up tomorrow but this time around, CLOT upped the ante a little bit even though they are still using the Nike Tennis Classic AC as the feature model.

The CLOT x Nike Tennis Classic AC TZ Museum Edition is built on the concept of "retro throwback of now", which goes along the vision of how a shoe that is released in 2012 might look like after decades down the road - hence the "Museum Edition".

Featuring metallic silver upper and CLOT's signature red colorway on the Nike's swoosh as well as its heel tab, selective pairs - one out of five, according to CLOT's co-founder Edison Chen - are given extra treatment which involved further hand-buffing by CLOT personnel that in hand made each of these special pairs unique to each other.

Look for pairs with serial number 12, that's the hand work of Mr. Edison Chen apparently.

Each of these pairs also come with the signature CLOT patch on it as well as a serial number that refers to the actual CLOT's staff that is responsible in executing the process on that particular pair, which can be crosschecked at CLOT's website.

While it is obvious that not all pairs will receive extra treatment by CLOT people, the distressed look already comes standard right from Nike's factory with each pair. Each CLOT x Nike Tennis Classic AC TZ Museum Edition - both CLOT-treated and standard factory-treated - is also accompanied by specially-designed traditional Chinese treasure box which intended to further highlight its museum look.

Being a Tier-Zero release, expect it to cost even higher in resellers market - so if you think the RM 799 price tag is a bit high, do consider what I've said earlier. After all, it is a CLOT release and if you not already aware, anything that EDC touch usually turns to gold. No pun intended. *snickers*

So yup, once again, if you planning to cop the new CLOT x Nike Tennis Classic AC TZ Museum Edition, make sure you already queue up at Juice KL in Bangsar before the sale starts at 12pm tomorrow - Sunday, 26 February 2012. DON'T SLEEP ON THIS!
