Nike Sportswear’s experimental N.354 label has produced several impressive iterations of beloved classics since launching in 2019. Among them, the Nike Daybreak Type, which has recently emerged in a “Pale Ivory/Metallic Gold/Summit White” colorway for women.
At a glance, the forthcoming pair deviates less from the original 1979 running silhouette than some previous releases. Closer inspection, however, reveals that despite donning leather profile swooshes, the three-tone proposition reimagines its predecessor via a “split” midsole. Elsewhere, breathable mesh bases and their mixed-materials overlays reinterpret the original Daybreak model without sacrificing the familiarity of the once-performance-oriented sneaker. Outsoles further nod to the past with their waffle-pattern, although the tread closest to the heel features non-standard extra tooling.
A Nike.com release date is unknown, but this women’s pair is likely to arrive in early 2021. In the meantime, enjoy official images of the shoes ahead.
