What is Nike about to summon?
Like falling into your opponent’s trap, .SWOOSH surprised the sneaker world last night by posting a collaborative post with the official account for Yu-Gi-Oh! on their Instagram. The teaser references the friendship mark Tea draws on Yugi, Joey, Tristan, and herself on the pilot episode of the animated series. The drawing is a sign of their strong bond as friends.

San Diego Comic Con’s preview night took place last night, and the SoleSavy team was able to secure a first look at what appears to be promotional cards featuring Nike branding. Said promotional cards were hidden away, like a millennium item lost for generations, within Konami’s booth at the convention.
Konami’s booth featured two different promo cards. A Trap card in Japanese and a Spell card in English. The trap card features easter eggs that reference the Yu-Gi-Oh! manga. Meanwhile, the english card features a pun that is likely a reference to the Air Max line. The Air Max 95 is featured on both cards, while a SWOOSH logo is featured on the card’s description box.
