Japanese snack culture is unmatched. If you thought the stateside snack aisles were full of an insane number of Oreo and Dorito flavors, you haven’t seen anything compared to the mini marts in Tokyo and Kyoto. From a wide array of flavored snacks to pre-made quality food, convenience stores in Japan set the standard higher than any Wawa or Buc-ee's could imagine.
Convenience Kicks
To celebrate Japan’s convenience culture, Nike dedicated Air Max 95 colorways to two of Japan’s favorite mini marts, 7-Eleven and Lawson. Both US-founded stores have evolved into giants in Japan, and even without a traditional collab, the two Air Max 95 colorways are about as clear as sneaker tributes get.
