The innovative Nike Air Rift, famous for its split-toe design inspired by Kenyan runners, is continuing its fashion-forward comeback. This time, it ventures into uncharted territory with a luxurious, in-house redesign that boldly merges athletic heritage with formal flair.
Ditching its typical technical fabrics, this iteration embraces a "Light British Tan" leatherbroguing—a detail synonymous with traditional dress shoes. This includes decorative serrations and studs
Further cementing its formal reinvention, the model's signature strap system undergoes a major upgrade. Gone are the familiar nylon straps; in their place are two refined leather straps, secured by polished metal buckles. This change adds a touch of bespoke craftsmanship and adjustable sophistication to the silhouette.
This "Light British Tan" release proves the Air Rift's design is more versatile than ever, successfully bridging the gap between streetwear momentum and timeless, sartorial elegance.
