The long-awaited retro of David Robinson’s classic 1990s high-top, the Nike Air Unlimited, finally returned to retailers in its original colorway this weekend. The bold color-blocking of Black, White, and Deep Emerald showcased Nike Sportswear’s dedication to giving a true and through retro of the oft-forgotten basketball classic, but today we get a fresh revamp to hold you over for the winter months with the Nike Air Unlimited Wheat scheduled to release on November 13th.
NSW’s “Wheat” regime is nothing new – the brand has been giving some of their most iconic silhouettes the treatment for the better part of three years now with the likes of the Air Force 1, Air Trainer 1, and Air Max 1 all back by popular demand in a Timberland-esque combination of Flax suede and Baroque Brown accents. The boot inspiration is fitting for the towering high-top that is the Nike Air Unlimited, as the slip-on upper fares well in a sandy shade of suede with the dual strap overlays adding lockdown support. A touch of gum even lands on the outsole’s heel unit.
Continue onward for a better look at the latest Timberland-inspired take on the David Robinson classic and grab your size at select spots like Shoe Palace on November 13th for $180 USD.
