A person who is very much dedicated to wearing Nike sneakers. Mainly Air Jordans, Dunks, Air Force 1's and Air Max (among others).
He or She is usually educated on the different years of production, nick names and going rates for exclusives and vintage pairs.
Some clothing brands have built their company around such "collectors" like CAPITAL or "CPTL" as some call it, hailing from the same city as Nike itself, Portland, OR.
A Nike head may have 10's or even 100's of unworn pairs of Nike sneakers in his/her possesion - putting them "on ice" for investment purposes or waiting for the right time to wear them.
