Nigel Sylvester Interview
So, did you have free range to choose the photo locations for the Nike 6.0 apparel shoot?
Yea I had free range. I really enjoyed the creative process that Nike and I went through on this project. It was great that I was able to pick locations that I was familiar and comfortable with. Not to mention, Todd Selby is an incredible photographer.
Rumor has it you helped design some of the 6.0 apparel pieces? How does that process go down?
That is one of the benefits of being with a company such as Nike. A lot of people may not believe this, but they really consider and involve their athletes in the design process. When I sat down with some of the designers like Peter, we were able to develop pieces that were different from the traditional 6.0 look and it’s great to see my style influencing the line.
How would you define your style?
I do what I want.
What's the story behind the diner?
The diner is one of those local spots that I know I am always guaranteed a good meal. The staff is very welcoming and "Pop" the Chef never lets me down. I try to visit it as much as I possibly can.
Do you seriously eat egg white omelets every day? What other eating habits do you have that we don't know about?
No, of course I switch it up every now and then, but egg white omelets are a staple within my favorite meals.
What's hot at Format right now?
Format is hot. The store represents for Queens and Queens will always be hot.
Besides the diner and Format what are your other go to stops on a day to day basis?
Whenever I'm out and about in NYC, besides hitting up Format and the Diner you can usually find me at some of my favorite riding spots such as the Banks. Or you can find me in LES when I'm tryn to get fresh, and uptown chilling with Jerry aka "The Baby".
