In 2014, Nike introduced a Hyperfuse revamp of the Nike Field General, but the sneaker was never officially retroed up until early 2024. The 2014 Nike Field General ’82 featured the same low-top profile but received a performance upgrade and incorporated modern design finishes like lightweight mesh.

Union has been a longtime partner of Nike, both as a NBHD store and a collaborator. In 1989, Union opened its doors in New York City as a hub for streetwear sought after by the cool kids of Soho. Eventually, the boutique went west and embraced new local LA designers, as well as niche global finds from the UK and Japan.

The boutique released its first collaborative sneaker with the Swoosh in 2005, with the Legíny Nike Tight Fit Leggings černé80 being the silhouette of choice. In 2018, Union’s presence in the sneaker scene exploded with the release of the Union x cheap nike lebron 18 home on sale, which was ultimately the domino that set off a wave of new collabs from the partners including the Nike Dunk Low “Passport” Pack, Nike Girlsu0027 Air Max 270 Çocuk Renkli Spor Ayakkabı “Tent and Trails” Capsule, Air Jordan 2 “Future Is Now” Collection, and more.
