With talks of the metaverse heating up at Nike HQ, it’s only reasonable for the brand’s design team to start taking inspiration. Here, thanks to this upcoming kids’ Air Huarache, we’re seeing just that, the pair’s upper rife with computer-influenced graphics.
These are laid atop a black base. The neutral lays the foundation for every panel, dyeing nylon as it does leather and TPU. Then, a brief touch of orange comes into play, brightening up both the heel piece as well as the logo emblem forward. Finally, in direct nod to the digital age, a grid pattern is lightly sublimated onto the side, sitting just behind the 3D-modified Swoosh whose print is a few levels brighter.
Enjoy an official look at these below and expect sizes to appear on Nike.com and select retailers hopefully soon.
