Nike x Billie Eilish - Nike Air Alpha Force 88 Drops a Major LIVINGINK Black Breakthrough AOC Fashion

Billie Eilish and Nike made sustainability news again this week, with the Tuesday [Aug.8] drop of the Nike x Billie Eilish - Nike Air Alpha Force 88 in Chicago Bulls colors.

Of course, few fashion bloggers wrote about the exciting news, even though one knows that if Billie Eilish does a new Nike drop, it’s gotta have some green cred beyond the affordable price.

Eilish is a devoted environmentalist and leverages her reputation always to move the fashion industry forward.

Billie’s New Kicks in Chicago

The mega-watt star wore her new kicks paired with a Chicago Bulls jersey at Lollapalooza 2023 Chicago last weekend. The scene was mega-watt, authentic Billie Eilish and the much-admired singer was generous with her kicks pics on her IG.

In total, her shoe is 25% recycled, and I’m sure Billie was begging for 35%.

Billie’s New Black Algae Ink

Billie and Nike delivered a breakthrough with algae ink from LIVINGINK, used for the black heel midsole paint and tongue top graphic.

In a clever headline, Vogue B wrote: “Algae is the new black: Nike sneaker swaps petroleum for sustainable ink. . . Other brands can take note.” This is news to AOC and we live close to the topic of sustainability.
