Presented in a handful of safari-inspired prints, the silhouette will still maintain its iconic outsole, while the complete uppers, including the ‘Swoosh’ areenveloped in fine pony hair. Set for an early April release, availability for the unique option is set to launch in Nike iD Japan locations and other parts of Asia.
