The Nike Air Royal Mid can be credited with loaning the VacTech look to the other Nike Sportswear classics that’re trying out the molded look this season, and this ’80s basketball-leaning lifestyle silhouette has proven adept in handling a range of variations. There’s the ‘Workboot’ edition, crepe-soled SO drops, revisions in ripstop nylon and mesh plus the recently debuted Royaltna, and now something closer to an NSW casual standby. These aren’t woven in the same sense of the word as those upcoming Lunar Flows, but the Air Royal Mid ‘Knit Pack’ does indeed rely on a textile weave for its black and grey uppers. Suede overlay sections and two-toned midsoles make this duo a can’t-miss, so examine the extra photos after the jump and look for these now at select European retailers.
