Nike Lunar Air 180 – “Ultramarine”

The hot trend of taking classic sneakers and updating them with modern technology continues with the Nike Lunar Air 180. For the Lunar Air 180, Tinker Hatfield’s Air 180 was updated technology from modern performance models. Nike’s lightweight and breathable Torch technology was applied to the upper. Below, Lunar Foam is used for forefoot cushioning. This pair, of course, comes in the classic “Ultramarine” colorway that helped the original achieve classic status. Blue is spotted on the Swoosh and rim of the tongue, while pink hits the heel, midsole, and branding on the upper. These will be available at retailers, like SNS, this month. Via Sole Collector
