As an experimental silhouette, the Nike Air Zoom Type proceeds to explore ways to reimagine itself via different textures and colors, even going as far as adding sherpa-covered lace shields. For an upcoming pair, it’ll be embracing a high-tech aesthetic by incorporating gridlines and nylon details.
Unlike most offerings, the Volt uppers are made of a gridded mesh material rather than suede. The subtle pattern is complemented by a black swoosh animated by a honeycomb print. More hits of black are applied to the heel, which sees a pull tab and overlay that uses ballistic nylon. These details are reminiscent of the strappy elements found on typical techwear pieces. The design is finished with its defining split-sole construction, further contributing to a futuristic look.
Expect the pair to arrive at Nike.com for $150 within the next few months.
For more neon propositions, this women’s Air Max 270 gets splashed with vivid brights throughout.
