Late in December 2017, Nike reached into its archives to remodel its 1980s Air Span II silhouette. Since then, The Swoosh has continued to provide updated colorways.

From the Spring 2018 collection, the “Hyper Royal” Air Span II is dressed in black, pink and blue for an old school effect. Probably one of the better looking renditions to date, the sneakers are marked by a black leather upper with pink accents. Further along, blue felt panels outline the toebox and heel counter. The vintage-inspired upper sits on top of a white midsole while hits of all three colors appear on the sole.

Take a look above at the Air Span II now available at Nike retailer overseas like Sneakers.fr and Nike website. For more retro footwear news, get a first look at the Reebok and Palace Workout Sneakers.
