A brogue-inspired twist on the iconic split-toe silhouette.
The resurgence of the Nike Air Rift shows no signs of slowing down, and its latest iteration pushes the boundaries of style even further. Departing from its athletic roots, this in-house design adopts a sophisticated brogue aesthetic, drawing direct inspiration from the world of formal footwear.
Gone are the usual technical fabrics. This version features a premium upper crafted entirely from "Light British Tan" leather. The design is meticulously detailed with classic brogue hallmarks: serrations (perforations)ornamental studs
Another significant upgrade is found in the closure system. Replacing the model's traditional nylon strap are two leather straps fastened with gleaming metal buckles, adding to the refined, dress shoe-inspired look while ensuring a secure fit.
This "Light British Tan" colorway proves the Air Rift's versatility, successfully blending sportswear heritage with sartorial elegance for a truly mold-breaking sneaker.
