Ode To Nike Sculpture Looks Delicious
A Swedish designer/illustrator named Olle Hemmendorff created this visual ode to Nike by using the greatest damn sandwich in the history of the world as inspiration: the hamburger. Olle and seven other designers were commissioned by Nike to come up with a design that would have people salivating over sweatshop created products and this is what they came up with.
'In the tradition of material innovation of AM 90, I constructed a running shoe using the most powerful, most durable and most delicious material known to man: hamburger.’
The design is the “Air Max 90” and it’s a brilliant piece of artwork until some rabid vegetarian-sweatshop-hating-hippie decides to eat the sculpture in protest of Nike’s questionable production ways. We can totally envision a ketchup touting protester.

"the most powerful, most durable and most delicious material known to man: hamburger"
Is this true? Well in my opinion, the world is fast growing into a fast food society and hamburgers are part of it. And so, anyone who loves hambergers and looks at this hamburger shoe would probably get hungry. I admit, it did trigger my appetite abit. Haha. However I don't think it's the most powerful, most durable and most delicious. If it's powerful it won't cause you to gain weight even if you eat lots of it. If it's durable, well, it probably won't go stale, and if it's the most delicious, people who think so probably haven't tried Singapore style chilli crab!
I like the last paragraph, it's a tongue-in-cheek way of saying things. =D
Besides anything else, this hamburger shoe is a quite a show of creativity from the designer.
What do you think?
