About the original
The Nike Heritage Crossbody is a compact 4-liter nylon shoulder bag with a main zip compartment, front organizer pocket, and an adjustable webbing strap sized for phone, wallet, keys, and a small water bottle. Nike was founded in 1964 as Blue Ribbon Sports by Phil Knight and Bill Bowerman and renamed Nike in 1971; the Heritage Crossbody has been an entry-level carryall in the Sportswear bag line for over a decade. The SS19 Supreme collab upgrades the body to water-resistant nylon with a diamond ripstop front panel, satin applique branding, and embroidered Supreme and Nike logos, released at $45 against roughly $27 for the stock Heritage Crossbody.
About Nike
Nike is an American sportswear corporation founded in 1964 as Blue Ribbon Sports by track coach Bill Bowerman and runner Phil Knight in Eugene, Oregon, and renamed Nike in 1971. The Swoosh was designed that same year by graphic design student Carolyn Davidson for thirty-five dollars. Bowerman prototyped the Cortez and the waffle-sole Moon Shoe, and the Air Max line, introduced in 1987, made Tinker Hatfield's visible-air midsole a signature. Nike now produces footwear and apparel across running, basketball, football, and training, and owns Jordan Brand and Converse. Supreme has collaborated with Nike repeatedly since 2002 across Air Force 1, Air Max, and Dunk.
