While Jenn and I were off vacationing in Vancouver, B.C., a few of the tech blogs started circulating Nike Speed+ images. Looks like Nike is set to release the update to their Triax series watches that are base on their “+” platform of wireless monitoring products. The U.S. Nike Timing website hasn’t been updated yet to reflect the product release, but the design looks familiar.

We contributed to this project about 2 years ago. It’s nice to see the “glass ball” aesthetic has been maintained as a derivative of the original Oregon Series watches.

While I searched around Nike’s timing site for some more information on the Speed+, I found this: the Mettle Blade series; which is reminiscent of some watch concepts we did for them when I first started at Teague. This design looks to have been pulled a bit closer to the Oregon Series than the concepts we originally worked on, but there is enough DNA in this version, that I recognized the watch.
