SOME EYE CANDY TO KICK OFF THE WEEKEND

 

Nike enlisted seven of its biggest athletes to appear in its Nike Sportswear Fall/Winter 2009 look book.

 

 

 

World Wide Web - Fanning yourself right now? I don't blame you. Kobe Bryant and Rafael Nadal do look hot wearing these Nike  hoodies, and thanks to the spring 2010 New York Fashion Week sweats has become a trend this season and the next, which could only mean you can wear these hoodies in public and be labeled as "trendy" not "sloppy". Who would have thought that would ever happen with sweats? The two athletes star in Nike's new Nike Sportswear Fall/Winter 2009 look book, along with Maria Sharapova, Sofia Boutella, LeBron James, Alexandre Pato and Manny Pacquiao. Fashion photographer David Sims and stylist Karl Templer were signed on to create a series of images for the look book to showcase the AW77 hoodie, which was first designed in 1977 by Nike's Geoff Hollister, and visited four cities to shoot the athletes. Here are more images from the look book:
