Naomi Osaka's Nike x Ambush US Open Outfit

In a nod to Japanese culture, Naomi Osaka hit the US Open in style with a Nike x Ambush green outfit. Bows, tulle and ruffles were designed for the tennis star and she absolutely glowed and made quite the fashion statement. The outfit had a removable tutu and windbreaker that she took off to reveal a green tennis ensemble. She was returning to the court after a break for her mental health as well…

Naomi Osaka and Yoon Ahn Redefine Court Style with Bold Self-Expression

Naomi Osaka’s powerful return to tennis is making waves far beyond the court, inspiring a new generation to embrace their power and personal style with confidence. In celebration of her comeback, Nike has partnered with Osaka and renowned fashion designer Yoon Ahn to create exclusive day and night competition kits for her highly anticipated return to the U.S. Open.

These custom looks feature one-of-a-kind performance dresses tailored to Osaka's unique game, along with walk-on skirts and jackets adorned with oversized bows—bold, distinctive elements that echo her dominance on the court.

“The inspiration that fueled the look for me — and this might be a Japanese term — is feeling like a 'magical girl' on the court,” Osaka shares. “There’s a moment of transformation for me when I walk onto the court, and I have a lot of fun playing, so wanting everyone who sees the outfit to connect with that feeling is a really big motivation for me.”

In tandem with these kits, Nike is launching the new Nike Women by Yoon apparel collection. This collection draws on Nike’s innovation and design philosophy, which is centered on listening to the athlete, understanding their needs, and helping them achieve their dreams. By bringing together Osaka and Ahn, a longtime Nike collaborator, the brand is pushing the boundaries of sport, style, and culture.

Ahn’s collection takes inspiration from court styles but plays outside the lines, combining elements like vintage school uniform colors and classic sportswear to create a rebellious, teen-inspired aesthetic. Unexpected cuts blend classic tailoring with a modern edge, offering versatile pieces that can be worn as a uniform or styled individually. Remixed heritage details, such as chenille varsity patches and YA for Nike Court logos, add a contemporary twist to classic tennis styles.

This campaign builds on the themes found in Ahn’s previous collaborations with Nike, particularly the 2023 Nike x Ambush football collection, which explored femininity, fashion, and pop culture through the lens of a fictional teen movie. With Osaka as the campaign's muse, it’s a powerful reminder of what happens when two trailblazing leaders come together—a synergy that only Nike and its partners can create.

“We live in a girls’ world, and I wanted to embody that in Naomi’s on-court look as well as the collection,” says Ahn. “For Naomi’s look, she brought forward a vision and it was my job as a designer to create something that she'll feel confident and comfortable in when she walks onto the court, allowing her to bring 100% of herself. The collection is an extension of that idea, allowing women to bring out their character and enhance their own personal styles.”

The Nike Women by Yoon collection will be available on nike.com and at select Nike retailers starting August 27.

Osaka x Mamba

In the face of the greatest rigodon in the millennial's material and immaterial world, bakit natin ginamit na reference and Gen Z and Gen X? Why not, right?

Was not able to squeeze in siesta during lunch break and still slept super late, and woke up at 3:14 AM today. Bakiiittt?

Work has been more manageable the past days and weeks to be honest, pero bakit? Saktong may bago na namang akong pimple na 'di ko sure if dahil ba siksik ng sisik si Vici sa head pillow ko, or may iba pang underlying factor kasi kakatapos lang ng time of the month na ugh na ugh, thanks malalang period headache. Wagas na wagas na, putok na putok pa, na ayoko na lang mag-overthink kasi 'di biro 'yung period headache ko. Sabi naman ng ating progressive OB, just take mefanamic acid or paracetamol in anticipation of the headache. So, pati headache, inaanticipate na natin ngayon.

In between Tamagochi checks and pabebe, three people have been reaching out and sharing their stories about the great rigodon. Lahat millennials and mala-journal po ang ganapan nila. Okay. Listen-listen syempre tayo with late replies madalas. Minsan, kahit sagarin ko 'yung good vibes + maldita vibes ko para makalma sila, super valid naman kasi ng feelings. :D Opak. Validation, baby!

Syempre, I try to be as honest, as unfiltered as I can. Andun na ako sa phase na gusto ko na rin mag-hustle as an empathic listener na up to 47USD per hour ang puwede mong i-charge. HAHAHAHHAHA. Ewan ko ba bakit 'yung algo ko, weirdo pero spot on. Imagine, effortless siyang task for me tapos ang laki pa ng ROI as laway lang ang puhanan. Mabilis ko ng matutupad ang aking mga gusto at maiiwasan ang mga hindi ko gusto. HAHAHHAHAHA.

As always, lagi ko naman ding sinasabi na, hindi madali pero nakukuha talaga lahat sa dasal at move lang ng move, onti-onti. Honestly, may mga times na gusto ko na lang gumawa ng GC kasi mala-templated na responses ko, hindi dahil sa gago ako, pero kasi, andami ko ring ginagawa at puwede na talaga silang magpakawala ng feelings sa GC tapos mas ma-feel nila na hindi sa alone on this journey.

Tawang-tawa nga ako kasi 'yung isa sa kanila is from biz continuity na condo levels in BGC ang pay grade. 'Yung recent prices ha. Hindi 'yung mga 10 years ago. Sana all. HAHAHAHA. Sabi niya, okay 'yan. AI is the future sa akin. I'm like, gusto ko lang talaga maging donut seeking peace of mind. LOL. So, saang banda pumapasok sina Osaka and Mamba so early in the morning? Kahit fan na fan ako ng duality and I live and breathe it, times are changing na talaga. Stark contrast and birds of the same feather sina Kobe Bryant and Naomi Osaka as poster people ng millennials na nasa gitna ng rigodon season sa lahat ng panig ng mundo.

Meron pa ring gender divide pero actually, as a ex-radical feminist, na seeking gender fairness, in fairness naman sa akin, I guess my character formation na tayo. HAHAHAHA. How so? Ke babae ka or lalaki ka, ngayon, EQ over IQ na talaga ang dapat weapon of choice. Sabi nga ni second dad na OG boomer and bomber, 90% EQ and 10% IQ naman kasi talaga kahit anong form of work. Lalo ngayon. Lalo sa mga susunod na kabanata.

Siguro, kailangan ko pang mas ma-widen 'yung bias ko kasi malimit akala is 'pag feminist ka, kaaway mo ang sangkalalakihan. Hindi naman kasi ganun lens ko. Parang lang. CHZ. Dapat siguro mas pinuhan ko pa para magkaroon ng common ground.

Nga pala, lahat ng 3 tao na nabanggit ko, mga XX sila. HAHAHAHAHA. So ayun na nga po. Ibalik natin ang gaze muna kay Naomi and Mamba. Parehas lang naman silang Ikigai players pero 'yung timelines nila, obviously iba. Syempre, tanggalin muna natin ang sports adver and marketing dito kasi, baka 'di na matapos 'tong hanash ko. Totoo rin naman kasing kaya may sudden shift sa female even sa sports brands like Nike is because women are more likely to have disposable income and are more emotional. :D Opak. Saka mas maganda na rin ang stance ng babae sa workspace, though needs improvement pa talaga, to be honest. LOLOLOLLOLL. Paki add po "time of the month" leave saka single pet mom insurance. HAHAHAHAHA. And Shein funds. Daming gusto talaga. LOL.

Pero, hindi rin biro ang pinagdaanan ni Kobe. As in. Compared to the macho Michael Jordan, Dennis Rodman and the rest na papogian ang moves, iniba ni Mamba ang takbo, ang pace, and face of the game. Ako lang 'to. Siguro kasi cutie din siya lalo na 'pag naglalaro na. LOL. And, in his career, medyo na-turn off talaga ako nung nagkaroon siya ng lamat sa sexual harassment.

Dito ko siguro unang narealize na 'di naman lahat perfect PERO 'di rin dapat na pinapapalampas ang mga shit na ganito. Dito rin ako medyo na-cringe, kasi iba talaga pa rin ang standards 'pag ang lalaki nag-fuck up versus sa babae. SIGH. Even 'yung agenda setting, kitang-kita e. View the details here:

https://www.latimes.com/sports/story/2020-01-26/what-happened-kobe-bryant-sexual-assault-case

Enter Naomi Osaka. In her documentary sa Netflix, I'm like, bakit sobrang lala ng agenda setting and framing dito? WHYYY? She could have been in a way better light kasi parang may strong vibe na victim or pa-victim kaya 'di kagandahan reviews. To think na she's but letting her heart and fart out? Perhaps kasi, dahil sa galawan ng career aka KPI niya. LOL. Hahahahaha. Si Mamba, derederecho lang. Walang patid. Walang sorry. Walang busina. Rekta pa rin. Si Naomi, may moment of uncertainty kung papalo pa ba siya. Kung itutuloy niya pa rin ang laban. Sabi nga ni dad, at the end of that day: naggawa ba or hindi naggawa; and more importantly, ano ba ang puwedeng gawin para matawid.

Thankful ako na 'yung Venn Diagram nito dalawang icons na 'to, pasok naman sa duality ko. I think na while I wear my heart on my sleeve, dahil nga batak ako sa mga alpha males and feeling alpha males pati lalo sa nanay kong dragon, hindi ako madaling ma-offend and kaya kong makipagsabayan, kahit bigwasan pa 'yan at pektusan. Kahit lumpuhan session pa 'yan na walang tulugan. Kung baga, malimit nga, tinatanong ako ng mga nagoopen up ke XX or XY na paano ko 'ti nawi-wing? 'Di ko rin super sure, pero siguro dahil pinipili kong i-balance out ang EQ and IQ kasi 'di naman ako magaling. I mean, saks lang, but I bring out who I am and who I am not sa kahit anong table na uupuan, tatambayan at aalisan ko.

'Di siya madali kasi lampas one decade na 'to bago ko ma-ire this morning. I guess, it's all about coming together, healing together and being better together mala Jack Johnson... na 'yung vinyl sa Batulao house ko na papatugtugin first time para naman, pak. :D

'Di madaling maging tao ke XX or XY ka. Syempre, based ito sa mga walang filter convos ko in the past years with a ton of people. XX feeling na okay, need kong maging career woman pero dapat okay 'yung family life ko lalo kung may anak at asawa ako. XY naman, bilang simpleng nilalang... babae, bahay, business, boobs na sapat lang saka bomba sa work. Tapos na. Okay na. Saka feeling nila in general na dapat provide kung provide na natatawa na lang talaga ako kasi, madalas, naawa ako sa levels ng yearning nila to be a "good" or "decent" provider. Easyhan niyo lang din kasi, XX and XY. Easy. Sabi nga ni dad, problema ng generation namin is masyado kaming maraming hanash pero at the end of the day, overcomplicated lang ang lahat. Isa sa mga litanya niya sa work horses niya is 'wag pagurin ang asawa sa bahay. Alagaan, mahalin. 'Wag daw tumulad sa kanya na dahil too complacent siya na kaya ni mom lahat, ayun, deads. HAHAHAHAHA. Umamin din sa wakas ang Hudas. LOL. Huy. Umamin na nga. Atoned his sins na nga e. Bumabawi na nga sa'yo e. :D May mga times na naiiyak pa 'yan si dad kasi dami daw niyang kasalanan sa nanay ko. Sabi ko naman: Dad, parehas lang kayong delulu ni mom. Ginalingan niyo naman kaso... boomers kayo e. HAHAHAHHAHA. Masyadong traditional mindset and 'yung roll out, sobrang ugh. Pero ganun talaga. Iba na generation ngayon.

Mas pinipili nga mga XX at XY maging single kasi, syempre, HAHAHAHHA. Why not nga ba? Seriously though, dahil sa generational trauma, generational curse (hindi sumpa as in MMK levels), childhood traumas at iba pang triggers. Totoo naman. Guilty ako diyan, pero, siguro, 'pag nahanap mo 'yung tao na patuloy mong pipiliin kahit sarap talagang iuntog, it may work. Bayannn. Bakit ba tayo nagwo-work? Para sa better future and para sa healing ng inner child. I guess, ang important is ma-define kung ano ba ang better future. How does it look like? What does it feel like? Anong essentials and non-essentials.

I still stand firm na mahirap maging babae, lalo ngayon... sa workforce, outside work kasi andami talagang hanash and cancel culture. 'Pag single ka, anong mali sa'yo? 'Pag may relationship ka, 'di ka na priority masyado kasi may chances ka na unahin ang pamilya mo. LUL. Hahahahahaha. Even sa plants and manufacturing, mas gusto nila babae lalo tomboy, kasi raw less chances of getting pregnant. Hahahaha.

Pero I stand firm din na there's something powerful in women who try to rock the boat and sail the boat. Shattering stereotypes and breaking barriers in their own style, baga. Need lang talaga ng full support, 24/7. HAHAHAHAHA. Puwede namang 18 hours para may downtime. CHZ.

Ano bang secret sauce ko? 'Di kasi ako tumitingin masyado sa gender e. Duality nga 'di ba? Ego, bias and verbal and non-verbal cues lang baon ko. Then ano bang intention ko given 'yung intention nung kung sino mang ka-interface ko.

So, ano nga bang intention ko? Ano rin bang intention mo?

Check ko na muna labada ko then try ko ulit muna matulog ng onti. Ayoko munang mag-melatonin or mag-take ng mga paganaps. O baka sundutin ko na lang muna 'to ng 1 bott ng wine tonight. LUH. Eto na naman ba tayo sa sedation season? Sakto naman, Paskong Pasiklab na rin. May good alibi, always.

Actually, ang gusto ko lang naman sabihin: Kelan ba best time mag-leave? Saka saan ako pupunta lalo sa New Year's Eve? Hahahahahahaha. Magandang umaga, madlang people!

Fortnite x Nike?

The recent collaboration between Fortnite and Nike in order to promote their partnership to inculcate Nikes into the virtual and expansive world of Fortnite. This creates an environment where players can interact with the products in a virtual manner.

Due to players being able to create their own islands and do anything on them, it gave Nike a blank canvas to create Airphoria an entire Nike themed island where players get to interact with the Nike placed characters Airie and Maxxed Out Max. This increases the retention towards the experience players had on Airphoria and for them to perhaps participate in real life. The city features five points of interest which when interacted with shows an important moment in the history of the company which engages players within the game.

They also made sure to make these characters as well as other cosmetic items related to the collaboration on the game's store. Fortnite being a free-to-play game primarily relies on microtransactions made through their in-game store in exchange for cosmetic items which made players actually spend actual currency in order to own these items virtually.

Fortnite is no stranger to collaborations with Balenciaga, the NBA, Naomi Osaka and other entities under its belt. this serves as a somewhat reliable grounds to influence players to interact with the brands virtually as well as realistically. The tools of advertisement are used quite aptly with iconic as well as indexical elements.

Following the 2020 Olympics, Naomi Osaka is back with a partnership with Levi’s.

On Tuesday, the denim brand announced the release of a four-piece collaboration with the tennis star, all made from upcycled and repurposed fabrics. According to WWD, the collection includes a bustier, shorts, low-rise jeans, and a denim kimono, inspired by Osaka’s Japanese-Haitian heritage.

“I always loved wearing kimonos when I was a kid,” Osaka said in a press release provided to WWD. “So, to be able to do it in denim felt really different and a bit unexpected.”

The two first partnered earlier this year when the US Open winner appeared in the brand’s campaign for its signature 501 jean style. In the video, Osaka reminisced about the first time she visited a Levi’s store at her local shopping centre in Florida and the popularity the brand’s 501 style had when she was in school before going pro at 16 years old.

Over the past few years, the tennis player has cemented her footprint in the fashion industry, partnering with Frankies Bikinis, Nike, Adeam, and Strathberry and becoming a Louis Vuitton ambassador. In September, she’ll co-host the 2021 Met Gala, alongside poet Amanda Gorman, singer Billie Eilish, and actor Timothée Chalamet. 

The Naomi Osaka x Levi’s collection is available to shop now on Levis.com.
