At first glance, the Nike Air Footscape Woven may seem like a sneaker that is hard to pair. We are looking at a shoe that belongs to what was undoubtedly the golden era of avant-garde Nike running design in the mid-90s. Today, in 2023, no one would wear it for running, although it can be a great choice to pair with a dinner suit or for a special event. Its unconventional silhouette and snug look make it a kind of sporty moccasin.

Nike in 2023 has revisited its footwear archives from ’96 to give its Air Footscape Woven another retro version. Originally designed by Tory Orzeck, the lifestyle runner will be available in a multitude of colorways for fall/winter 2023, and the latest version presented is this luxurious Black Croc edition.

The new model exudes an elegant sophistication with the “Black,” “Pale Ivory,” and “Desert Ochre” color palette. Moving away from the traditional suede structure, it adopts an all-black upper that resembles crocodile skin texture.

With the iconic asymmetrical lacing system and interwoven stripe detail on the upper, the sneaker features the embroidered Pale Ivory brand on the tongue and heel. A subtle Swoosh adorns the black insoles, adding a touch of understated elegance. Completing the design, an Off-White midsole sits atop a black rubber outsole with a waffle pattern for both style and performance.

Price and release date of the Nike Air Footscape Woven in black color

The Nike Air Footscape Woven in black will be released in the coming months, and their launch price on the Nike website will be 179.99 euros. If you can’t wait that long, you can get your hands on the Nike Air Footscape Woven in Natural & Brown at the next SNKRS Day 2023 on September 9.
