At the upcoming Art Basel in Miami, Nike will host “Virgil Abloh: The Codes c/o Architecture,” a four-day event celebrating the life and work of the legendary designer. The program is set to run from December 1 to 4 at the Rubell Museum in Miami and is set to feature discussions, workshops, and exhibitions of the artist’s work. 

The intention of the experience is to showcase how Virgil’s unique design principles can be applied to nearly any artistic endeavor. These design principles are the guiding light for Nike and Architecture, the team Abloh created to work on his collaborations with the Swoosh.

Alongside Nike, the Miami event is being held in conjunction with VA Securities, the creative corporation lead by his widow, Shannon Abloh.

“Virgil and Nike thrived together because he understood the brand’s role as a cornerstone of culture while Nike understood the importance of truly supporting creatives and their visions,” said Shannon, in a press release. “This beautiful four-day experience at Miami Art Week will honor their legacy together and champion both Virgil’s open-source methods and his genuine commitment to collaborating with and inspiring others.”

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
