Michelle Wie and Melissa Reid Will Wear Swarovski Nikes
This weekend as Nike athletes Michelle Wie and Melissa Reid compete in the Solheim Cup they will be rocking personalized kicks. Swarovski, the global leader in precision cut crystals, and Nike worked together to put together these bold and beautiful shoes.
Michelle Wie will be wearing customized Nike Blazers that are covered in more than 6,000 Swarovski crystals. Imagine how much her shoes are going to sparkle on the green! Most of the upper is decorated by crystals that glimmer multipe colors, the swoosh is a bold blue, and the crystals on the heel spell out her nickname, Wiezy.
To add on to Wie’s customized collection, she will also be styling a pair of Nike FI Flex PEs with Swarovski detailing. The 874 Swarovski crystals that adore these shoes were applied by hand by a crystal expert. All the work that went into these shoes paid off.
Nike athlete Melissa Reid also has a magificent pair of Swarovski embellished Nike FI Flex PEs. This pair of shoes has 1,028 hand-applied crystals. All of the shoes are inspired by the colors of the teams these talented athletes play with. Reid’s nickname Mel adorns the side of the shoe in bright gold colored crystals while blue and gold crystals make up the swoosh. One can only hope more shoes like these will be made for general releases.
