As technological innovations present themselves, its inevitable that our favorite shoe styles growing up become obselete or get a new makeover. For the sake of preserving a well-established sports culture, Nike has chosen the latter of the two. We appreciate Nike trying to give new life to some of these classics, but unfortunately now some look too athletic rather than sports casual. This pair, however, turned out to be a very successful mesh of old and new. The Nike Woven Footscape Chukka, not reaching mainstream popularity like other Nike’s but a beloved style to those in the know, gets a foundational upgrade with a Lunar midsole. Joining an upper, with such a primitive look influenced by some of the first foot protection people ever made, to an aerospace industrial structure probably never looked so good. Don’t expect these to pop up on shelves soon, though. Keep posted for future info. Images via Tenisufki
