This new version takes a step back from the overt and embraces subtlety, allowing its understated elegance to speak volumes. It starts with a smooth, “Coconut Milk” leather base, a color choice reminiscent of the creamy, warm beverages enjoyed during fall. The hue envelops the shoe in a soft, neutral palette, setting the stage for its more pronounced features.
What catches the eye next is the strategic application of “Khaki” suede on the Swoosh and heel overlays, a material shift that introduces both texture and contrast. This deliberate material play is where the shoe nods to the autumn season, as the khaki brings about images of fall foliage, seamlessly connecting the sneaker to the time of year known for its earthy tones and layered attire.
Below, Khaki suede Swooshes and heel tabs add a touch of luxury, extending to the tongue labels and insoles. The design wraps up with a White AF1 midsole and semi-translucent outsole.
