Nike debuted a new sneaker silhouette at Rochambeau’s runway show at New York Fashion Week: Men’s. Named the Nike Air Zoom Chalapuka, the running shoe was first introduced in 2001 but was soon shelved. Fast forward 15 years later and the Swoosh is bringing it back with modern updates. Still boasting a contemporary cutout style, the new Nike Air Zoom Chalapuka features premium suede details set atop a bold sole. The cutout upper provides stylish breathability and will be available in several colorways. As seen in the Rochambeau show, there will be navy, burnt sienna, sand and black colorways. Expect these kicks to be officially unveiled in a month. What do you think of the Nike Air Zoom Chalapuka?
