Making up part of the “Polar Opposites” pack, the white take on Virgil Abloh’s collaborative Nike Air Presto features many of the designer’s signature touches. The familiar design elements include the quotation marks around the words “AIR” and “SHOELACES,” as well as a deconstructed tongue and orange tab.

The sneaker comes with an all-white upper, as well as white plastic caging and white rubber midsole. Other than the orange tab, the only color detailing is a tonal cream Swoosh and the classic red plastic tag. As it stands, there is no official release date for the “Polar Opposites” pack, although it is rumored to be dropping on June 21.

In related news, the first Virgil Abloh x Nike Air Presto got a surprise restock recently.
